The Washington Bridge has been closed three months. We may know its fate Thursday.

Gov. Dan McKee and state transportation experts are set to reveal the fate of the ailing westbound Washington Bridge on Thursday.

Three months after the bridge was closed to guard against collapse, McKee is set to hold a media briefing with state Director of Transportation Peter Alviti Jr. and engineering consultants hired to analyze the condition of the bridge and what to do about it. The briefing is scheduled for 3 p.m.

Will the Washington Bridge be torn down? Officials have been hinting

In January, when the bridge's condition was found to be even worse than first suspected, Alviti said it was possible the structure would need to be torn down, but that the state would have a diagnosis by the end of February or early March.

Since then, signs have pointed toward replacement of the 1968 bridge as a more likely outcome than repairing it.

A media advisory Wednesday evening said the briefing will include a "structural analysis."

In addition to McKee and Alviti, Joseph Almond, the governor's senior deputy chief of staff who has been overseeing bridge planning, will be at the briefing, as well as representatives from engineering firm McNary, Bergeron & Johannesen. McNary, Bergeron & Johannesen was hired by the Department of Administration to evaluate the forensic analysis and engineering conclusions of the contractors who have been working on the bridge.
