    Niantic River Bridge not damaged in storm

    The hurricane did not damage the new Niantic River Bridge.

    The project is still on schedule, Cliff Cole, an Amtrak spokesman, said Thursday.

    Amtrak built a two-track, electrified, railroad bascule bridge across the Niantic River between East Lyme and Waterford, 58 feet south of the old bridge. The old bridge will be fully removed next spring.
