The four-lane portal into the Tahoe-Reno Industrial Center in Storey County east of Sparks will soon span the Truckee River as development continues in the mammoth business park.

Last week, crews using a 450-ton crane set concrete beams on what will be a new bridge linking the park's key artery, USA Parkway, with a soon-to-be-completed interchange at Interstate 80 north of the river.

When they open, the bridge and interchange will provide shorter and faster getaways for the hundreds of trucks a day hauling goods from mega-sized warehouses, topped by a 970,000-square-foot Wal-Mart facility, that dot the 104,000-acre park.
