## Resource

Youngs Crossing is getting a major upgrade with the first of 83 giant concrete girders now installed — paving the way for a new flood-resilient, four-lane bridge over the North Pine River and Sideling Creek. This $51 million joint project, backed by federal, state, and local governments, aims to replace a decades-old crossing that floods regularly, shutting down over 20,000 daily car trips. The bridge, spanning 200 meters, will be complemented by new traffic lights and better pedestrian/bike access. With construction halfway done and the rest of the girders arriving over the next five weeks, the project is on track to finish by late 2027 — delivering long-term relief for residents and businesses tired of flood-related chaos.
