The work began in April 2024 to replace the bridge built in the 1970s, resulting in the closure of the area between North Shore Drive and South Shore Drive/West Eureka St., along with a portion of the Rotary Riverwalk. These areas are now accessible to motorists, cyclists, and pedestrians. The project consisted of several improvements to the roadway, including the replacement of the bridge deck and beams, along with storm sewer improvements. The West Street Bridge also has new sidewalks, ADA ramps, curb lines, curb ramps, and newly resurfaced pavement.
