Walkways Are All Installed on Pedestrian Bridge

The last section of walkways have been installed and the railings are up on the Squibb Park Bridge linking Brooklyn Heights to Brooklyn Bridge Park. Construction has been moving quickly. The previous section of the pedestrian bridge went in just six weeks ago. According to Brooklyn Bridge Park spokesperson Teresa Gonzales, work is ongoing on the installation of the guardrail mesh fence and handrails as well as on the underside support structures for the approach spans. “Work will continue through the first few weeks of February,” she says. “And we hope that bridge will be complete and open to the public soon after.”
