A Volvo EC210C excavator is among the equipment Kodiak Corp. of Lawrence, Mass., is using on the project.

The reconstruction of the Gleasondale Road Bridge in Stow, Mass., is under way, with preliminary work completed and removal of the existing deck and beams to follow.

The Kodiak Corp. of Lawrence, Mass., is the contractor.

The project dates back to a 2015 safety inspection that found the deck, beams and northern abutment of the bridge to be beyond repair and in need of superstructure replacement.

The bridge was partially closed and is limited to carrying one lane of alternating traffic.

Preliminary work included tree removal and utility work in March and April 2021. Utility work began in May and construction began in November. According to MassDOT, one half of the bridge will be worked on at a time, with the eastern side demolished and rebuilt until spring 2022, when the western half will be demolished and rebuilt.

With utility relocations complete, demolition of the eastern side of the bridge is under way. Kodiak will remove beams from the temporary barrier, allowing traffic to be maintained.

Bulding for Education...

Schools in Newport Will Get New Facility, Additions By 2022 The schematic plan for a new Rogers High School in Newport, R.I., is still undergoing changes, with the most notable of the recent alterations being a planned new building for the school district’s administrative offices and staff, the Daily News reported Dec. 16.

Kyle Lentini, of Downes Construction Co., the project manager of new school construction on behalf of the city, updated Newport’s School Building Committee (SBC) on the status of a pair of school construction projects — the new high school and an eight-room two-story addition to nearby Pell Elementary School.

Shaheen Presses Biden to Ramp Up Infrastructure Spending U.S. Sen. Jeanne Shaheen of New Hampshire has urged the Biden administration to expand outreach and to advance planning grants as soon as possible to help states, cities and towns make the most of the new federal infrastructure law, the Union Leader in Manchester, N.H., has learned.

As a lead negotiator for the bipartisan $550 billion Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA), Shaheen recently wrote a detailed wish list to Mitch Landrieu, Biden’s infrastructure czar, after she met with New Hampshire city and town officials on the matter.

Landrieu was the former mayor of New Orleans who got high marks for his administration’s response to Hurricane Katrina.

“The local stakeholders will be the ones who truly deliver on the promise of this law for the communities they serve,” Shaheen wrote. “However, their success depends heavily on the extent of outreach and coordination provided by the administration.”

According to the Union Leader, Shaheen said Landrieu’s office should hold informational sessions, grant workshops and adver-

tise heavily to make sure the programs get full participation across the country.

The state’s senior senator also put a pitch in for the Biden administration to approve New Hampshire projects for many discretionary competitive grants under the fiveyear bill, such as for bridge repair and rural road construction.

State officials estimate this law gives New Hampshire a 51 percent increase in federal highway and bridge aid programs.

But it did not change the traditional highway formula, which continued to give the state one of the smallest per capita grant amounts in the country.

“I encourage you to recognize and facilitate the role these competitive grants can have in filling the unmet needs of small states like New Hampshire and ensuring that federal assistance is distributed equitably among the states,” Shaheen noted in her letter to Landrieu.

Some of the law’s critics maintain it did not do enough to identify “shovel ready” projects that would stimulate the economy.

State Transportation Commissioner

Victoria Sheehan told the New Hampshire Executive Council her office was awaiting “further guidance” from the Biden administration about many of the grant programs.

The council is expected to vote soon on whether to accept $177 million in federal highway, bridge and electric vehicle charging aid from this law over the next two years.

Sheehan has asked to use those grants to hire more than two dozen temporary staffers to help her agency get more work out quickly.

The increase also will allow the state to move projects up to the next 10-year highway program that the Legislature will consider next spring, she explained.

Much of that additional work can be done, Sheehan said, because the projects are at or near the end of final engineering design; this extra cash will help pay for construction, she noted.

Sens. Maggie Hassan and Shaheen were among 11 Democrats who worked with 11 Senate Republicans on details of the final infrastructure package.

The New Hampshire Union Leader reported that the final bill includes $5 billion

to help communities such as Merrimack, Bedford, Litchfield and Londonderry deal with drinking water contamination from socalled “forever chemicals,” along with other communities trying to eradicate arsenic in their water.

Shaheen urged Landrieu to ensure the program permit this assistance not only for public systems, but for those people who rely on private wells for drinking water.

“With more than 40 percent of people in New Hampshire and roughly 15 percent of people nationwide relying on residential wells, it is important that the historic investments in safe drinking water help all families,” she added.

Londonderry Town Administrator Kevin Smith applauded Shaheen for being instrumental in getting this aid into the final deal.

“In Londonderry, it will be critical that our town is able to access a portion of this funding to mitigate PFAS [per- and polyfluorinated substances] contamination in residential wells and thus provide clean drinking water for all of our citizens,” he explained to the Manchester news source. 

Kodiak Utilizing Cat Equip.

Bridge deck and steel removal will take two to three weeks and then work under the bridge will begin with excavation of the northern and southern abutments.

GLEASONDALE from page 1

Bridge deck and steel removal will take two to three weeks and then work under the bridge will begin with excavation of the northern and southern abutments. Then, Kodiak will build formwork and pour concrete for the new abutments. Starting in spring 2022, the steel beams will be replaced on the bridge’s eastern side.

While the demolition and replacement of the east side of the Gleasondale Road bridge takes place, the west side remains open to traffic and pedestrians. When the demolition and replacement of the west side takes place in the summer and fall of 2022, traffic and pedestrians will be rerouted to the newly built east side of the bridge.

The new bridge will have two 10-ft. travel lanes, two 5-ft. bicycle lanes, two 6-ft. sidewalks and new crash-tested railings at the back of the sidewalk, according to Jeff Dietrich, a planner of Howard Stein Hudson, Worcester, Mass., the engineering firm on the bridge reconstruction project.

Dietrich and Michael Splain, assistant bridge engineer of the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection, spoke about the project at a Zoom meeting on Sept. 1. They said the project acknowledges the environmental significance of the Assabet River, over which the bridge is suspended.

“We’ll be staging equipment to make sure no materials are dropped into the river,” Dietrich said.

The design also maintains the current footprint and does not interfere with surrounding property or homes.

“We’ve been made aware of all the septic tanks and wells in the area to ensure we’re not impacting those in any way,” Dietrich said.

The construction equipment Kodiak is using on the project includes a Caterpillar 315F L excavator.

The Gleasondale Road Bridge carries Route 62 over the Assabet River and is an important commuter and trucking route between Stow and Hudson and an important corridor for emergency response among several towns.

The construction equipment Kodiak is using on the project includes a Caterpillar 315F L excavator, a Volvo EC210C excavator and a Cat 226D skid steer.

Traffic will be maintained over the bridge with no overnight work or closures during the demolition.

The contract budget is $4.3 million, primarily funded by federal dollars, according to Kristen Pennucci, a MassDOT spokesperson. The job is scheduled to be completed in November 2022.  CEG

Lane Construction Finishes Energy Job in Connecticut The Lane Construction Corporation has completed a year-long project to take advantage of renewable energy with the installation of a 1,666 module-array on the roof, property and carports in the parking lot of its corporate office in Cheshire, Conn.

The system is expected to produce more than 760,000 kilowatt-hours of renewable energy annually (98 percent of the electricity used in the office), thus avoiding more than 540 metric tons of carbon dioxide emissions, the annual carbon dioxide equivalent of taking 117 cars off the road. Installing this system is a step toward reducing Lane’s carbon footprint and it will create savings on energy bills for decades to come.

The project also included the installation of four electric vehicle (EV) chargers, free to employees and visitors who drive electric cars. When in full electric mode, an electric car produces zero emissions. Smog and greenhouse gas emissions are also greatly reduced, even when considering the electric-

ity generation needed to power the vehicles.

(Drive Clean, 2021).

“Not only are we looking forward to the financial benefits of going green, we’re also thankful for the opportunity to do our part for the environment by taking these important steps to reduce our CO2 emissions,” said Robert Hoffman, director of mechanical at Lane.

This socially responsible project is the first solar installation project for Lane, which is owned by parent company Webuild Group. The project is in support of the group’s sustainability strategy, which identifies infrastructural sustainability and construction site sustainability as the two pillars upon which the group’s commitment and reputation are fully based.

Webuild’s business is strongly oriented towards developing and building infrastructure that directly contributes to advancing the main Sustainable Development Goals (SDG-oriented) and transitioning to a lowcarbon economy. 
