Tuxedo Bridge project faces slight delay

March 12, 2025

Contract crews continue work to replace the Tuxedo Bridge deck over the Caney River. The project consists of a full deck replacement of the westbound bridge.

Traffic over the bridge has been reduced to one lane for each direction on the eastbound bridge to accommodate the project.

“The project had been tracking pretty well until the past few weeks,” said Director of Engineering Micah Siemers. “There have been some minor delays associated with some structural steel components that had to be replaced. We originally planned to be complete by the end of June and it’s looking like closer to middle of August, at this point.”

The Pathfinder trail in the area will remain closed under the bridge for the duration of the project.
