Another portal to the Union Station area opened today. The new Union Gateway Bridge takes pedestrians over the rail lines and into the Riverfront Park area at 18th Street. For right now, there is a bit more there there than on the downtown side, but of course that will change. Do not confuse this with that famous far north "Bridge to Nowhere", as our Somewhere is well under way!
And, speaking of bridges, traffic and development news, DUSPA announced two more developments in the construction process. Auto traffic on Wewatta between 16th and 19th is shifted to the north side, and is one lane in each direction beginning today, March 5. All of you drivers should enjoy that for the next two years, according to DUSPA.
And, walking to the Millenium Bridge from the station will shift to the south side of the light rail tracks for the next two years, as the main walk will be closed. That will start the week of March 15th. Watch out for the trains!
