King County announced today that the construction company Kiewit-Massman was chosen to replace the South Park bridge, after the company's winning bid came in at just over $96 million. The county initially estimated replacement costs to be between $98 and $108 million.


Construction is slated to begin in May on the new bridge, which will hopefully be open by mid-2013, according to the county's road services division. Before the bridge closed, it carried 20,000 cars and nearly 3,000 trucks each day over the Duwamish River.
