WMS Map: Highway Bridges Built Since 2015
About Highway Bridges Built Since 2015 ....
There was a time when hundreds of bridges were built over a time period of a few years during the late 1960s when the highway system was constructed. But nowadays bridge construction has slowed, with mostly replacement bridges built, maybe with the exception of Exit 3 of Northway. This map shows bridges built across New York in the past five years.
