Replacement of the Third Avenue Bridge Over the Harlem River
The replacement of the 105-year old Third Avenue Swing Bridge is complete. The new 5-lane crossing will consist of 17 approach spans and a 350-ft long swing span for an overall bridge length of 1500 feet. Including on-grade approaches, the overall project length is 3500 feet. The scheme selected is an on-line replacement, requiring complex staged construction that includes a temporary bridge and float-in of the fully-assembled swing span, which has been barged roughly 1800 miles to New York City from Alabama.
