As the building of the Formula One headquarters near the airport approaches completion and roadwork on the race route continues to wreak havoc on drivers, news comes of yet another related infrastructure development. Three temporary bridges will be constructed along the course, not for pedestrians, but for cars to help alleviate traffic snarls and allow Strip employees to get to work. The largest one will span 760 feet and have four traffic lanes. The bridges will be installed in October and removed shortly after the race concludes.
