The lower level of Cleveland’s historic Veterans Memorial Bridge is set to undergo a significant transformation as part of a broader effort to upgrade and modernize this iconic structure. Spearheaded by Cuyahoga County, in collaboration with the City of Cleveland and the Ohio Department of Transportation, the project aims to revitalize the bridge’s unused streetcar level, turning it into a public space complete with bicycle lanes, walking paths, and park-like areas.
Before any events or tours are held on the lower deck, extensive preparations are required to address potential hazards, including cleaning up debris, reinforcing weakened areas and conducting thorough inspections to ensure visitor safety.“The bridge itself is structurally sound for how it’s being used right now,” Nichole English with Cuyahoga County emphasized.
