to a proposed Burlington bike bridge because the cost has more than doubled.
The bike-pedestrian bridge would span the Winooski River between Burlington's new north and Malletts Bay in Colchester. Currently bike riders cross the river on a ferry, but it runs only in the summer. Years ago someone suggested the state should build a permanent bike path bridge.
Sam Lewis, Agency of Transportation Engineer, says the project's estimate of 1.4 million dollars was accurate when it was presented and approved by lawmakers in June.
Lewis says unanticipated expenses have since more than doubled the cost to 3.3 million....and that was just completely unforeseen. Now the project has gone out for bids with plans to begin construction in December.
