The Project

This comprehensive project will replace two structurally deficient bridges on Route 113 where it passes over I-95 and I-295, carrying approximately up to 33,000 vehicles per day. Route 113 is a major east-west corridor for Warwick, linking large residential and commercial areas including access to the Community College of Rhode Island’s Knight Campus. The project includes paving, sidewalk work, ADA accessibility, new traffic signal upgrades, new pedestrian crossing features, and many other safety improvements along other important corridors in the city.
