As your Richmond City Council representative, part of my job is to make everyday life a little easier — and to find simple solutions to nagging problems, both big and small. When it snows, one of those problems is not knowing whether the Nickel Bridge is open until you’re already on the road.
This page exists to solve that. Here, you can quickly check the current status of the Nickel Bridge. I work with our partners at the Richmond Metropolitan Transportation Authority (RMTA) to receive timely updates, and will post them here as soon as possible. While we will do our best to keep this page current, there may be brief moments when information is slightly out of date.
