This work is part of the State Route 509 Completion Project. As soon as Dec. 8, the existing South 216th Street bridge will be demolished to make way for a new, wider bridge. Watch the South 216th Street bridge video to learn how WSDOT is replacing the bridge in phases. Photos of construction work are available on the project’s Flickr page.
