Broadway Bridge Project

Sacramento Broadway Bridge seen from Pioneer Bridge

Both the City of Sacramento and West Sacramento have approved the preliminary design for the Broadway Bridge Project. The new  Sacramento River crossing immediately south of Pioneer Bridge could possibly be completed between 2030 and 2035. The estimated bridge construction cost is currently $278 million, but that will most likely rise as these things do until a contractor is chosen and date is set to begin.

Draft EIR For Broadway Bridge Project

Both the City of West Sacramento and Sacramento are proposing to construct a new bridge over the Sacramento River south of the Pioneer Bridge (US 50). The proposed Broadway Bridge includes the de-industrialization of West Sacramento’s Pioneer Bluff including the relocation of the Union Pacific Railroad line, acquisition of decommissioning of Shell Oil Facility and Wastewater Treatment Plant. The estimated bridge construction cost is currently $278 million, but that will most likely rise as these things do until a contractor is chosen and date is set to begin. The total length of the project is one mile from 5^th Street in Sacramento to Jefferson Blvd. in West Sacramento. The new bridge will also have a movable bridge span to allow larger boats to pass through the area. After scanning the EIR and other related documents, it appears construction might be completed between 2025 and 2030. The comment period is from July 7 to August 23, 2021 at mccoyj@cityofwestsacramento.org.
