South Elm Bridge Replacement
Building a Better T
As part of our $9.6 billion, 5-year capital investment plan, we're renovating stations, modernizing fare collection systems, upgrading services for our buses, subways, and ferries, and improving the accessibility of the entire system.
We’re replacing the South Elm bridge which carries the Haverhill Line over South Elm Street between the Bradford and Haverhill stations. The current bridge was built in 1906, and replacement is necessary to extend its service life and bring it into a State of Good Repair.
- Design contract awarded: 2019
- Status: 100%
- Budget: $16.4 million
- Projected completion: 2024
To reduce service disruptions and inconveniences to neighbors, we’ll complete work in phases. Construction is scheduled to begin in fall 2023.
Project Overview
Service Impacts
In fall 2023, scheduled work will impact Commuter Rail service and neighborhood traffic on a select weekend to be later announced. During this closure, we’ll post detour signs and work to reduce construction noise.
