Project Details
About
The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) is painting and rehabilitating the State Road (S.R.) 401 movable bridges at Port Canaveral. In addition to painting, the three bridges will receive structural steel improvements, bridge deck improvements, and new span lock assemblies. A span lock assembly is a mechanical system that typically holds a movable bridge span in place when fully closed.

Lane Closures
-
Motorists are advised that the middle movable bridge that connects southbound State Road (S.R.) 401 to eastbound S.R. 528 will be closed continuously beginning as early as Sunday, June 1. This closure is expected to remain in place through September 2025.
Traffic from the middle bridge will be shifted to the newly reopened western bridge. Therefore, motorists traveling southbound on S.R. 401 who wish to access eastbound S.R. 528 should follow signage to the westernmost bridge and then use the access road on the east side to reach the eastbound S.R. 528 on ramp. Please see the attached detour map.
The closure is necessary for the rehabilitation of the bascule bridge, including the replacement of the coating system and machinery. The other two bridges will remain open to accommodate both northbound and southbound traffic. Marine traffic may cause the bridges to close temporarily.
