Time is almost up to see what the Big Carlos Pass Bridge could look like before the physical work begins.
The bridge is 55 years old and in need of replacement, but some people have raised concerns over the proposal.
They like the idea of a wider bridge, especially for biking and walking, but not taller.
What’s now a draw bridge could become a fixed span bridge with a 60-foot vertical clearance.
