North Spring St. Bridge Widening Community Meeting

LACBC wants to call attention to the fact that Caltrans and the City of Los Angeles are planning to widen the North Spring Street Viaduct to seismically retrofit the bridge. They are seeking community input on the expansion’s design. Currently, they are considering two alternatives for the expansion – a single-side widening, which would add approximately 28 feet to the bridge’s current width, and a dual-side widening, which would expand the bridge to twice its current size.  We have reviewed these alternatives, in conjunction with SEACA (Southeast Asian Community Alliance) and the Los Angeles Conservancy, and can recommend certain elements of the plans.

We need your help to ensure that Caltrans and the Los Angeles City Council understand the bridge’s possible impact and the importance of properly designing the expansion.  Please join us at the Community Meeting to provide feedback on the proposed bridge expansion:
