Orientation: The Plan and Elevation diagram
provides an overview of the Greenville Bridge project.
The diagram shows the entire 13,759-foot (4194.96m)
system of structures including the bridge and its east
and west approaches. The structures will be supported
by 89 piers, which are individually numbered.
This diagram, as well as Phase 1 of the
construction project, deals only with activity between
piers 36 and 39: construction of the actual cable-stayed
bridge. The bridge approaches will be built in future
construction phases.
- Piers 1-35 support the bridge approach
on the Arkansas side
- Pier 36 is the western anchor pier
for the cable-stayed bridge
- Pier 37 provides a foundation for the
west bridge tower
- Pier 38 provides a foundation for the
east bridge tower
- Pier 39 is the eastern anchor pier
for the cable-stayed bridge
- Piers 40-89 support the bridge approach
on the Mississippi side.
