In an update on Monday, Houston Public Works announced the partial demolition of the MKT bridge at Hogan Street was complete.

The MKT bridge is still closed, but officials added that the White Oak Bayou Greenway walkway is open for use.

According to TxDOT, the bridge was extensively damaged in late January when construction equipment on I-10 was swept down the bayou.

There is still no timeline for when the bridge will be replaced.
