Episode Details

Governor Dan McKee is set to unveil the full plan for rebuilding the Washington Bridge at a 1:15 PM press conference, with key officials and contractors in attendance. The bridge’s westbound side was shut down last December after serious structural issues were discovered — a closure that’s severely disrupted daily traffic across the Seekonk River. Originally announced last summer, the project aims for completion by November 28, 2024, at an estimated cost of $427 million. With the rebuild dominating recent political debates — including a heated exchange with challenger Helena Foulkes — the governor will detail every phase from current work to final opening, offering drivers much-needed clarity on when and how this critical infrastructure will return.
