Road closures start Monday near Longhorn Dam for bridge construction

AUSTIN (KXAN) -- Those traveling along South Pleasant Valley Road near Longhorn Dam will notice some additional traffic closures next week as the City of Austin continues work on its new "wishbone" bridge crossing Lady Bird Lake.

City crews kickstarted construction last month on the Longhorn Dam Multimodal Improvements Project. The new pedestrian and cyclist bridge in development will connect Longhorn Shores to the peninsula and Canterbury Park while bypassing South Pleasant Valley Road.
