The Galley Road Bridge Project is now projected to be completed by Spring 2026.The city states that the project has been delayed for several reasons, one being the need to relocate sensitive fiber optic lines. The process of mov ing the lines took crews a year, instead of the original 3-4 month timeline.For this reason, Galley Road between East San Miguel Street and Moffat Circle is still closed. We certainly are sympathetic to travelers impacted by the Galley Road bridge replacement project. This project hasnt gone as smoothly as wed have liked due to factors outside our control.Another project nearby, the Galley Road and Wooten Road Culvert Rehabilitation, is scheduled to start in early 2026. The city says the work won't completely close the road.According to the city, the projects aim to do the following; Improves mobility and transportation reliability by reducing the potential for stormwater to overtop the canal and close Galley Road Enhances safety by providing wider sidewalks and a signalized trail crossing Upgrades a section of Galley Road using current design and safety standards Provides more capacity in the canal to accommodate high water eventsCity officials ask that people not attempt to drive or walk through the area, which they say has been an ongoing problem throughout the project.For more information on the project's timeline, visit the City of Colorado Springs' project website.____Watch KOAA News5 on your time, anytime with our free streaming app available for your Roku, FireTV, AppleTV and Android TV.
