Crews opened the new southern portion of the Palmetto Park Road bridge over the El Rio Canal to traffic May 29 as work shifted to the median portion of the bridge spans for eastbound and westbound traffic. All work on the new Palm Beach County bridge, an expected one-year project that began in 2021 and has been hit with delay after delay ever since, could be completed by midsummer, according to County Commissioner Marci Woodward. Construction teams are moving forward with final paving and striping, sidewalk and landscaping work, and other finishing touches. Woodward said she is hoping for completion of the $4.3 million county project in July. Larry Barszewski/The Coastal Star
