The Bourne and Sagamore Bridges are iconic Cape Cod landmarks and critical links in the region’s transportation network. As these nearly 90-year-old bridges continue to age, the $4.5 billion plan for their replacement is moving into an important phase. This presentation will cover the history of the bridges, the decision-making process behind the replacement project, and what the future could look like for Cape Cod residents, business, and visitors.   Steven Tupper is Deputy Director at the Cape Cod Commission, where he leads a multi-disciplinary team developing solutions and securing funding to address regional challenges while protecting Cape Cod’s unique character.
