They are doing rapid bridge replacements, which I understand must be done based on current pier width. I've also seen design work for sound barriers that will be installed on that stretch at some point, and they are based on the currently alignment.

There is definitely no expansion of the right of way planned with these replacements, as that would require and EA and consultations.
