MEMPHIS, Tenn. — The public can make its voice heard on the new Interstate 55 bridge over the Mississippi River, replacing the current 75-year-old bridge. A public hearing was held in Memphis Wednesday evening at Central Station. There is another set for Thursday at 5 p.m. at the West Memphis Radisson Hotel.The environmental study is complete, and the developing I-55 bridge results will be unveiled at two public meetings this week."We had a concept that we showed back at April and we've done some tweaks," said Nichole Lawrence, the Tennessee Department of Transportation regional communications officer. She says the adjustments made on the bridge were needed."It's a small area. The emergency lanes are very small with the 10-foot-lanes. That will be changed with this new bridge. They'll have three 12-foot lanes, plus the 12-foot shoulders." Gov. Lee walks across old I-55 bridge, touts plans for new one in Memphis Dave Parker, public information officer for the Arkansas Department of Transportation, saysthey are contributing over $200 million to this project just like TDOT is.  And he's very excited about its potential."Where the bridge connects now in West Memphis and where the bridge connects now in Memphis won't change a whole lot," he said. "It's the middle part, the deck , the mile and a half stretch that's what we're gonna be building new." TDOT shows what a new I-55 bridge could look like on Memphis skyline The new bridge is expected to be three times taller than the current one, which some say may alter views from the historic French Fort neighborhood. Parker says they are still in the developing and designing stages."All the preliminary stuff should be finished late 25 early 26 and therefore construction will follow sometime in 2026 we're  estimating it's gonna take 2 to 3 years on this and that's a fair guess at this point… if we get it all wrapped up…we're cutting the ribbon on the new bridge by 2030. I think that's pretty good bet."
