North Bridge ~ 2012
North Bridge is currently under construction and is scheduled to
open August 2012. Please Click Here to
see some of the construction progress.
Project
North Bridge will provide a safe above grade facility for
crossing Routes 9/10/12 at this important location.
Currently, pedestrians, bicyclists and others dart out across
Routes 9/10/12 over two lanes of high speed traffic and entry/exist
ramps looking for gaps in the traffic. This is extremely dangerous
and unsafe.
To completely eliminate this problem and to maximize use of the
existing rail trail infrastructure, an ADA-complaint bridge
spanning the highway needs to be constructed at this location.
People required to use wheel chairs (manual or powered) or
ADA-approved scooters will now have access to both sides of 9/10/12
without a motor vehicle.
North Bridge will also safely connect destinations inside the
bypass, such as Keene State College, Colony Mill Marketplace, and
downtown Keene with the growing residential areas of West Keene and
the regional trail system.
North Bridge will provide a safe access to destinations in West
Keene such as the Keene High School, Wheelock Park, and the soon to
be constructed YMCA.
North Bridge will be standing for the next 150 years. It is
expected that as the price of fuel increases it will be popular in
the future to park in a shopping area on one side of 9/10/12 and
walk to the shopping center on the other side (instead of hopping
in your car and driving there as you do today).
PFK actively supports the North Bridge project and delivered
$52,000 to the City in August 2009 for the project. PFK delivered
an additional $48,000 to the City on July 7, 2011 bringing their
total contribution up to $100,000 for the project.
PFK acknowledges that its payments were the direct result of the
generosity of the more than 156 sponsors and contributors who each
made a substantial contribution to this project.
