What will the Bijou Street bridge look like when it’s completed?
The Bijou Street bridge will be a gateway entrance to both Downtown and the Westside, with distinctive 17-foot obelisks anchoring a pedestrian- and bike-friendly structure. The new bridge’s ‘ornamental lighting and railings, as well as attractive stonework in its abutments and enhanced landscaping at both ends will complement Downtown’s existing cityscape.

Also, the City’s Cimarron Street bridge, which is undergoing an emergency rebuild in 2007, will mirror this design, providing twin gateways into Downtown and the Westside.
