No, but it's been implied. The owner would have absolutely no use for the old bridge, and has stated that it'd be immediately shut down upon the completion of the new section, and only used for "overflow" traffic on heavy days. But, everyone knows that what's being sold as a "twinning" and "enhancement" is actually a replacement bridge.

If Matty gets his way, the Ambassador will go the way of the other properties he owns in Southwest Detroit: he'll neglect it for years until it almost has to be demolished. It's demolition by neglect and no one has done it better and more overtly than he has.
