Will McTeer Bridge be open during repairs?

We got the news (thank you Gazette) that the first beam arrives on May 18th and then 10 weeks til completion (that puts it at Water Festival). Does anyone know if the one lane on the McTeer Bridge will remain open during the repairs? Wasn't sure if anyone had said yet or if it is even possible during such repairs.

Any info. would be great - Might be a good time to take vacation!!

It may be a little difficult to have it open considering that the roadbed at the center span and the supporting steel underneath will need to be taken up in order to do the repair. I seriously doubt they will allow traffic to attempt to jump the gap. It could be entertaining but probably a little dangerous.
