Sidewalk BridgeJan 30, 2013

We need to install a sidewalk bridge, but running into a problem with our neighbors. They have a bridge installed over our property line. Are they required to remove their bridge and should we be responsible for their cost?

They are required to remove their bridge only when they are finished with their work. In the meantime your costs will be lower especially if you complete your work before they finish theirs. If you can, use the same company they used for their bridge.

The company you deal with will be able to help you. They deal with this type of issue all the time.

sidewalk bridge - burt Jan 31, 2013

For most building work that requires a sidewalk bridge, the bridge has top protect the first 20 feet on either side of your property line. You need to work with your contractor or sidewalk bridge company to see what the requirements are and then deal with your neighbors on both sides of your building.
