The Liberty Bridge is a bridge spanning the Michigan River in Neophyx City in the world America.

History

First Bridge 2003 - 2012

The first bridge had been built in 2003 and has been demolished in 2012 after traffic has been transferred on the new and current structure. Upon construction, the first bridge initially had only one deck with two lanes for each directions. It has been later upgraded to two decks carrying four lanes each during the major freeway boom in 2005 doubling its capacity. A bike and pedestrian path had also been added later in the same year.

New Bridge

Plans to rebuild the bridge started as early as in 2010 with the hope of making it more realistic. The pieces for the new structure started to be manufactured in Sedan and imported to America where they have been installed progressively next to the previous bridge.

The new bridge opened to traffic circulation several months before its official inauguration that took place in May of 2012 when its construction has been finalized with the installation of the cables.

Specifications

Architecture
