Traffic jams ahead as South Florida bridges face fixes

South Florida's crumbling bridges will be taking a toll on traffic over the next few years as officials gear up to either fix or replace them.

Drivers are most likely to be affected by work on the 66-year-old Broward Boulevard bridge just east of Interstate 95, the 65-year-old Southern Boulevard bridge over the Intracoastal Waterway in West Palm Beach, and the Venetian Causeway, a series of bridges built in 1926 linking Miami and Miami Beach.

There are two dozen South Florida bridges that need to be replaced or undergo major repairs, and officials stress that none are in danger of collapsing.
