Riverfront Plaza Phase 2 Begins | Jacksonville News

Get ready for major changes on the Main Street Bridge starting August 24th—construction for Phase 2 of Riverfront Plaza is underway, bringing lane closures and a shut-down pedestrian walkway for up to five months. While northbound car lanes stay open, southbound lanes will shrink to one, and the southbound sidewalk will be fully closed. This phase connects the bridge’s west side to the plaza with new bike and pedestrian paths, plus a beer garden, expanded landscaping, and a water feature—all part of a $46M upgrade following the first phase’s $33M success. Drivers heading south should plan ahead and consider using the Acosta or Mathews Bridges to avoid congestion. This is just one piece of the city’s big vision to revitalize the Northbank riverfront with parks, cafes, and public spaces.
