Hi Ellynne,
The property along the Norwalk river, between the I95 bridge and the Train bridge, on the east bank, is undergoing two different construction projects. The construction of the walk bridge, which has been ongoing since 2020 is one. And that has closed off the southern end of the Esplanade for almost two years now. The second is work being done by Norwalk on the water treatment property which is also used as a depot for the city’s trucks. That has closed off the remainder of what birders know as the “Norwalk River Esplanade” hotspot. I don’t know if any timeline has been announced. But the latter project will probably be finished first.
