I-74 Bridge is Set to Be Rebuilt

The I-74 bridge has been scheduled to be rebuilt starting in 2017 and is expected to be completed in late 2020 with an expected cost of $1.44 billion. Let's take a look at what the prediction was just a few years ago.

First, here is the 50 page project display for the new I-74 bridge.

This is the information taken from 2006 Quad City Times article:

If federal and state funding is available, construction on the new bridge could begin by 2010, with approach work and configurations in downtown Bettendorf and Moline beginning as early as 2007.

The bridge itself is expected to cost between $170 million and $190 million.

Now, with this information at your disposal, what is your prediction for when the bridge will actually be completed?
