The contractor has identified an issue with one of the bridge arches, which has delayed placement of the bridge. They are currently working with the manufacturer to determine and implement a solution. 

According to the City of Shoreline,

While this issue has delayed the placement of the bridge, we do not expect it to delay the overall project schedule. The contractor has adjusted the sequencing of work, allowing activities originally planned for after bridge installation to move forward now. 

As a result, the project remains on track, and we continue to anticipate opening the bridge as scheduled in spring 2027.
