Cost/lane(+bd)-
2-
More than four lanes assumes divided directions with a total of 4 breakdown lanes.
Last line is a crude estimate of the expected cost of the I5 bridge based on length,
10+4 lanes at an assumed cost of $12 per lane-
IT IS A VERY ROUGH ESTIMATE -
Another rough estimate can be obtained by inflation adjusting the cost of the I205 bridge:
From: http://www.nobridgetolls.com/I205.html inflation adjust that 2010 estimate to 2020: $466 million.
These two estimates are roughly the same: $500-
