Construction is underway on the first California Bridge Project to use Portland limestone cement (PLC) in the concrete. Security Paving Company is midway through building the new 1,430-foot-long bridge, which will carry Foothill Road across the Cuyama River.
The Foothill Low Water Crossing Bridge Project is near Cuyama and being constructed for Santa Barbara County. The bridge will feature 30 spans across the river, and includes two traffic lanes, shoulders, and a pedestrian walkway with LED lighting.
The Federal Highway Bridge Program is funding the $15.9-million Low Water Crossing Bridge Project, which is scheduled to complete in autumn 2023.
