Physical Conditions• The existing railing, deck, and stringer
conditions warrant replacement due to extensive chloride intrusion and map cracking of the concrete
• Additional concrete and steel repairs necessary to extend the life of the structure
Strength Requirements• The structure’s current load rating indicates
the concrete arches are below statutory requirements, restricting the number of simultaneous revenue vehicles and work cars on the viaduct

Green Line Extension Project Update
Bus lanes are needed to maintain people capacity
• In the absence of buses, many of the 14,000+ Green Line riders may choose to drive and overload the roadway system
• Congestion may increase with or without bus lane, but bus lane guarantees a reliable transit alternative
• Bus Lanes also projected to save up to 15 minutes round-trip per passenger during weekday peak travel times
