To view the upcoming schedule for the Hoan Bridge Lights, please visit our regularly updated Light Schedule page.

Our crowdfunding goal to light the east side is $2M. 

 

The monies raised from both the public and private fundraising campaigns will go toward installing thousands of computer-controlled LED lights to illuminate the Hoan Bridge on the east side of the bridge. A portion of the funds will also be put into a reserve fund to provide for regular bridge maintenance up to 10 years for both sides.
