[[Riverside|RIVERSIDE, Cen.]] – Construction of Riverside's new Rando M. Politician Memorial Bridge is underway as of Friday, September 5, according to [[CenDOT]].
The existing northbound bridge has been closed to traffic since 201X after sustaining significant damage in a kaiju attack. (The kaiju's name was not released, as he was a minor at the time.) Since then, the southbound bridge has been reconfigured to carry one lane of traffic in each direction.
"It's not really that big a traffic delay, all things considered, especially since people mostly take the trains anyways," said Riverside mayor Alton Darby. "But it's really ugly, you know? A city as cool as Riverside deserves a cool-looking bridge as well."
The new bridges, which will carry four lanes of Highway 94 across the [[Peridot River]], are expected to open to traffic in October 202X.
