Drivers will have to wait until September to go over the new Pfeiffer Canyon Bridge, but in the meantime Caltrans offered a peek at what to expect with renderings of the $24 million structure.
The original bridge's northern support column fractured after a landslide during the rainstorms in January and February.
The 320-foot replacement, which is expected to open to the public by late-September, will not have support columns and be built using steel girders.
The Pfeiffer Canyon Bridge was built in 1967.
