Progress on Guerrero Park bridge continues

Preparation for construction of the Roy G. Guerrero Park bridge at Country Club Creek is underway, with actual work expected to start early this year. An update on the project from the city’s Public Works Department notes that fencing and closures of trails in the park are in place for safety reasons, and asks visitors not to cross fencing. During construction, there will be no access to creek crossing within the project zone, which is mapped below. The concrete pedestrian bridge collapsed in 2015, and the current stabilization project was a long time coming, as several city departments have worked to come up with a permanent solution. Now that it is underway, anticipated completion will be around the end of 2024 “pending any unforseen circumstances,” per the update.
