The WALK Bridge project includes inter-related rail and infrastructure projects in Norwalk, CT.

The Connecticut Department of Transportation initiated the WALK Bridge Program to replace the deteriorating railroad bridge that crosses the Norwalk River in Norwalk, CT. The 127-year-old existing four-track swing bridge will be replaced with a state-of-the-art vertical lift bridge. When closed, the WALK Bridge connects the rail line that passes through the heart of historic South Norwalk on the w

est side of the river to East Norwalk on the east side. The Walk Bridge is a critical transportation link between Washington, D.C., New York City and Boston, commonly called the Northeast Corridor. The Northeast Corridor is America's most frequented rail line in both ridership and service frequency. The Replacement of the WALK Bridge will provide safe and reliable rail transportation services while improving navigational capacity and dependability for waterway users. The new bridge will be redundant with two independent moveable spans. This allows one span, or two tracks, to remain in use when the other needs to be serviced. The resilient and sustainable structure will withstand extreme weather events like storm surges and high winds.

Building new railroad bridges while keeping the trains operating is a huge task! At the WALK Bridge, it is extra complicated because it is a moveable bridge, spans the Norwalk River and is being replaced with an entirely new structure that is being constructed on site in the existing bridge footprint!

The project progresses with the upcoming removal of the high tower wires (de-commissioned) and the removal of the old high towers. Here's what you need to know:
🚂Train service will be extremely limited between New Haven and Stamford every weekend from 9/12-11/1. A special schedule is now available - PLAN AHEAD for your weekend train travel during these weekends.

🚧🚧🚧The high tower wires are being prepared now for removal. Take a look at these pics with our power crews literally towering over the bridge using special mega-lifts to get hundreds of feet in the air! This equipment will be staged along N.Water Street so plan ahead for road closures on N. Water Street between Washington St. and Marshall Street. Follow posted detours and police direction. This week N. Water Street is fully closed - the public parking lot remains open. SCHEDULE SUBJECT TO CHANGE. https://www.walkbridgect.com/map/ #/3078
🚧🚧🚧One sidewalk along N. Water Street remains open to pedestrians - please stay alert through the work zone.

Lots of action over at the WALK Bridge in SONO with our crews towering above the tracks to prepare the now de-commissioned signal cables for removal (note: new transmission lines have already been relocated UNDER the Norwalk River via the micro tunnel beneath the river). If you are in SONO, look up and check it out!

Please note: a special WEEKEND travel train schedule will be in effect starting the weekend of Sept. 12 through every weekend until Nov. 1.
