The New NY Bridge

Posted on August 18, 2015 - Posted in: Blog

As part of the Project Management Class, Professor Paula Cancro took her class to the Tappan Zee Bridge Community Outreach Center and Viewing Platform in Tarrytown. The purpose of the visit was to understand how the construction of a new bridge can involve so many phases and different teams working on a single project. The first span of the new twin-span bridge is scheduled to open in 2016, and the new bridge should be completed in 2018. Prof. Cancro was interviewed by the blog Kaleidoscope Eyes and here’s the article with more details about the trip to the new Tappan Zee Bridge:
