Twin Span Bridge
Replacement Project
The Interstate 10
Twin Span Bridge across Lake Pontchartrain
sustained serious damage from Hurricane
Katrina. Construction of a new $800 million
replacement bridge is underway.
The new bridge will consist of two parallel
structures, each wide enough for three travel
lanes, with 12-foot shoulders on each side. The
westbound bridge is scheduled for completion in
late 2009. The eastbound bridge is slated to
open two years later.
