Bridge Projects Donald MacDonald FAIA Bridge Architects
  Ninth Street Bridge- Modesto, CA:

 Composite view of Ninth Street Bridge Donald MacDonald Architects provided aesthetic design assistance to our clients, Dokken Engineering and the City of Modesto, for a modified haunch girder bridge. This bridge type was approved by community design workshops in the city of Modesto. The bridge is approximately 2000

feet long and carries four lanes of traffic (and a pedestrian/bicycle pathway) over the Tuolumne River.

Aesthetic details are to be found in the lighting, railings, the forecourt, and pier treatments. The modern architectural vocabulary joins the adjacent historic Lion Bridge and reinforces its proportions and human scale. The new bridge represents a 21st century view for the park that surrounds the structure.
