R.I. Begins Phase Two of Newport Pell Bridge Approaches Federal, state and local officials gathered July 16 on the long Claiborne Pell Bridge off-ramp in Newport, R.I., for the groundbreaking of work to reconfigure the structure’s approaches, the second phase of a total $84.9 million project that began in 2020.

Last year’s $10.9 million initial phase of work saw crews begin the reconstruction of JT Connell and Coddington highways, from Admiral Kalbfus Road to West Main Road in Middletown, as well as the installation of a separate bike and pedestrian lane. The Rhode Island Department of Transportation (RIDOT) expects Phase 1 to be completed by the end of this year.

The newest phase, at a projected cost of $74 million, is due to be finished by late 2024, the Newport Daily News reported.

“This project is a big win on many fronts,” said Rhode Island Gov. Dan McKee at the ceremony. “It will solve chronic safety and congestion issues, provide a unique opportunity for economic growth, and create an attractive gateway into Newport.”

Many Pieces to the Project The Cumberland, R.I., contractor, J.H. Lynch & Sons, began building the ramp reconfiguration in June by digging up the rotary at JT Connell and Admiral Kalbfus,

according to the Daily News.

Secondary bridges over Third Street, the railroad tracks and JT Connell Highway will all be upgraded this year, said Jody Richards, the project manager of RIDOT. He added, in remarks to the Daily News, that work also will begin on the shared-use bike path that will run parallel to the tracks all the way to Newport’s Gateway Center.

In the next few years of construction, crews will eliminate the extended off-ramp that currently heads over Admiral Kalbfus Road before curving around to land across from the former Newport Grand site on the north side of the road. Locals call this lengthy aerial viaduct ramp “the road to nowhere” because it was originally Jeanne-Marie Napolitano designed in the 1960s for a relocated Newport Mayor RI Route 138 project that never came to fruition, according to the Daily News.

The new plan calls for construction which will be converted to a roundabout of a single ramp that will curve down to the with a narrowed travel lane that will lower south side of Admiral Kalbfus Road and will speeds and feature pedestrian crossings on allow motorists, cyclers and pedestrians to come on and off the Pell Bridge. A movable all approaches.

RIDOT believes the contemporary design barrier also will be built down the middle of will reduce crashes by nearly two-thirds, the ramp separating eastbound and westbound traffic.

RIDOT is planning to remove the existing “Downtown Newport” exit from the Pell Bridge to reduce an estimated 80 percent of rear-end and sideswipe crashes, according to agency estimates. The new ramp will have an exit that takes motorists to a spot further north on JT Connell Highway.

As part of the upgrade to the bridge’s approaches, JT Connell will be extended from the rotary at Admiral Kalbfus Road straight through to Farewell Street, giving residents of the North End of Newport a simple connection to the rest of the city.

The project also is designed to install a traffic signal at the intersection of Malbone Road and Girard Avenue, along with pedestrian crossing features and other improve-

“Newport has re-imagined itself many times over its history, and we look forward to what the 21st century brings.”

ments. These changes are expected to reduce up to 75 percent of crashes at the crossing, according to RIDOT. RI Officials Laud Long-Awaited Project Newport Mayor Jeanne-Marie Napolitano said the push to reconfigure the bridge approaches began two decades ago.

“We’ve waited a long time for this day,” she told those in attendance at the July 16 groundbreaking. “Since that time, numerous City Councils, mayors and city managers have helped push this project forward little by little.”

The Daily News reported that Napolitano and other speakers credited Rhode Island’s U.S. Sen. Jack Reed, a member of the Senate Appropriations Committee; his colleague, U.S. Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse, a member of the Environmental Public Works Committee; and U.S. Rep. David Cicilline, for securing a $20 million federal grant in 2019 that helped kick-start the project.

“The Pell Bridge is the gateway to Aquidneck Island,” Reed said. “Whether you are traveling to Newport attractions or [Naval Station Newport], this project will make your trip safer and faster.”

Whitehouse added, “My hope is that the construction of new ramps will be just the first step in upgrading the iconic Pell Bridge,” while, in his remarks, Cicilline noted, “This project is so significant because it has been a priority for Newport for years and years.”

The Daily News reported that RIDOT’s reconfiguration of the area also is expected to free up about 25 acres for economic development.

“While in some ways this may mark the culmination of a decades-long effort, as a city, it’s also just the beginning as we look to revitalize and reconnect Newport’s North End,” Napolitano said. “Newport has reimagined itself many times over its history, and we look forward to what the 21st century brings.” 

Joint Proposal to Address Traffic Issues at The Downs A proposed five-year traffic improvement plan may come to fruition because of a threeway partnership between the town of Scarborough, the Maine Department of Transportation (MaineDOT) and developers of The Downs.

The 524-acre mixed-use community is in the heart of Scarborough in southern Maine and is to feature a vibrant town center and an innovation district. It will be made up of residential, commercial and recreation space.

During a Scarborough Town Council workshop in late June, developers and town staff explained that traffic movement permitting, required by MaineDOT for new development at The Downs, is an opportunity for the community to improve traffic without increasing taxes.

The Downs is close to many major road networks in Scarborough and its construction will improve at least 30 intersections in town, some more substantial than others, according to Dan Bacon, the project’s developer.

“It really will impact and better the key corridors in the community that everyone thinks of — the U.S. Route 1 corridor, the Payne Road corridor, including South Portland,” Bacon told the Scarborough Leader.

“So, the Payne Road corridor turns into Maine Mall Road, and it’s one regional corridor, not just a jurisdictional corridor, so we’re making improvements working with both [the town and MaineDOT] along that entire corridor, all the way up to the Best Buy entrance or the Maine Mall entrance on Maine Mall Road. We’re also working on signals at Eight Corners, Haigis Parkway improvements, and even out to north Scarborough.”

Roccy Risbara, another of the developers of The Downs, said program funding would come from three sources: the MaineDOT Business Partnership Initiative, totaling $3 million or an allocation of $1 million each year for three years; the town of Scarborough’s impact fee share, totaling $2.8 million; and The Downs’ project share of $8.2 million.

He added that MaineDOT’s $3 million commitment is “a big deal” for the citizens of Scarborough to get that benefit from the state.

The town’s impact fees also are heavily counted on to make the needed traffic plan a

reality, Risbara noted to the Scarborough news source.

“These are monies that have been collected over time from developers for improvements, and we’ll take that money, put it together with ours and [those from the state], and we can make some really big improvements,” he said in remarks to the Leader.

“We’re funding the rest of the balance on that.”

Going forward, Risbara and his fellow developers must enter a memorandum of understanding with the town.

He added, “Through this process, my take on it is [MaineDOT] then stepped up and said, ‘We have a program that we can assist with because we know that there are these ongoing problems that have been in [Scarborough] for years, and we’d like to help fix them.’”

This agreement would give the town a chance to use the impact fees as well as plan for future use of the fees, said Scarborough Town Manager Tom Hall.

“What we’re doing is in accordance [with] what we’re collecting the funds for,” he said. “The reason we haven’t put them to use to date is we either hadn’t had enough or the timing hasn’t been right, and this gives us the chance to leverage other resources to do bigger projects, including what we’re committed to do already.”

Jay Chace, Scarborough’s town planner, said one benefit of the agreement would be that the plan’s timespan would better help coordinate the construction efforts to minimize distribution from construction sequencing, leverage funds from MaineDOT, and provide efficiencies in project administration. 
