Cape Coral Bridge upgrades next steps. (CREDIT: WINK News) Crowds of people are expected in downtown Cape Coral to celebrate Independence Day, leading to the shutdown of the Cape Coral Bridge for the duration. The bridge closed at 3 a.m. and will remain closed for 24 hours for the Freedom 5K Race and the Red, White & Boom celebration. The closure includes Cape Coral Parkway from Southeast 15th Avenue and Cape Coral Street to the bridge and Del Prado Boulevard from Southeast 47th Terrace to Miramar Walk and Waikiki Avenue.
