In Design: North Old Glebe Road over North Glebe Road Bridge Replacement in Arlington County

This project will replace the North Old Glebe Road bridge over North Glebe Road (Route 120). The bridge, which averages 7,000 vehicles a day, was built in 1964.

A new bridge will be constructed due to the estimated rehabilitation cost of the existing bridge exceeding 65% of the estimated cost to replace the bridge.

The new bridge will feature a wider sidewalk on the eastern side and an additional sidewalk on the western side.

Estimated Project Costs

Preliminary Engineering - $1.5 million
Construction - $13.5 million

Total - $15 million

The project is financed with federal and state funding, including State of Good Repair funds used for bridges.

Benefits 

This project will:

• Improve driver and pedestrian safety
• Maintain driver mobility 
• Enhance pedestrian mobility via the additional sidewalk
• Reduce maintenance costs
