With an aging structure dating back to 1969, the Wyoming Department of Transportation decided it was time to overhaul the Interstate 25 Bridge over Walsh Drive. The $29.48 million project not only enhances the visual appeal of this area but also significantly improves mobility for pedestrians and vehicles. A new signalized intersection helps reduce vehicle wait times, particularly during peak hours. Furthermore, the project extends and connects multimodal pathways; providing access from the existing pedestrian facilities in the Town of Evansville to the Rails-to-Trails system managed by the City of Casper. This initiative creates a safe route across a multilane roadway and fosters opportunities for business growth, including plans for a new hotel adjacent to the project and pathway system.
