Cape Coral Bridge Replacement

The KCA team was selected to perform Design and Owner’s Representative services for the westbound span replacement and eastbound span replacement of the Cape Coral Bridge between Cape Coral and Fort Myers in Lee County. The key aspects of this project include development of a design that expands the existing facility to six lanes while minimizing right-of-way (R/W) impacts, maintains westbound access for residents on the Cape Coral causeway, incorporates sheltered sidewalks on each bridge that tie into pedestrian facilities on Cape Coral Parkway and College Parkway, and maintains four lanes of traffic and local resident access throughout construction. The final design will focus on safety for both vehicular and pedestrian traffic. The new design will also include a new pedestrian bridge for added safety. The design will also have the vision to incorporate high-value aesthetic components into the entire project to provide the “Signature Gateway” to the City of Cape Coral that is consistent with Lee County and the City of Cape Coral’s goals for the project.
