Makeover Underway For Footbridge: What To Know

NEWPORT BEACH, CA — The iconic Goldenrod footbridge in Corona del Mar will receive a fresh coat of paint ahead of its centennial celebration in 2028, city officials said.

The makeover will be executed by Astro Painting Company, Inc., with whom the city contracted to start the project this week.

Working hours will be from 7 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. on weekdays through March 29, the city said.

The bridge walkway will remain partially open for pedestrian traffic.

Bayside Drive, below the Goldenrod footbridge, will be closed to vehicle traffic on Monday, March 25 through Wednesday, March 27 as paint crews work underneath the bridge. Electronic signs are in place to delineate the detour path.
