Tampa Bay Times: Yet another Tampa bridge closure on the way

Just when it seemed officials had run out of downtown Tampa bridges to fix, here comes another repair project.

The Laurel Street bridge, a hulking red and gray span just south of Interstate 275 and north of the David A. Straz Jr. Center for the Performing Arts, is next up on the city's bridge repair list.

Work on the 85-year-old drawbridge hasn't been scheduled yet, but officials expect it to start late this year, causing a closure for three months early next year.

The city has already rehabilitated the Cass and Platt street bridges.

On Tuesday, the county will close the Columbus Drive bridge for three months to replace electrical components and make other repairs.
