Episode Details

They’re about to move the massive Commercial Street Bridge in a daring test slide—just one foot forward, then back—to ensure everything works before the big move. With Parkway East closure looming in two weeks, key roads like Commercial Street, Forward Avenue, and part of the Nine Mile Run Trail are shut down today for the test. The old bridge’s foundation is completely unused; instead, brand-new permanent supports are ready to hold the new structure. The bridge rests on deep temporary supports over 40 feet underground, which will be removed once the slide is complete. It’s a high-stakes engineering ballet with safety measures in place—watch for updates as they inch toward the main event.
