CTDOT Does Work in Advance of Larger Walk Bridge Replacement

By Cindy Riley

Specializing in:

Demolition, Portable Crushing, Material Sales, C & D Recycling, Land Clearing, Heavy Hauling & Trucking

CALL 800-367-4937

As part of a much larger undertaking, the Connecticut Department of Transportation (CTDOT) is overseeing two key projects that will be completed in advance of the highly publicized Walk Railroad Bridge replacement. The CP243 Interlocking Project and the Danbury Branch Dockyard are independent of the structure replacement over the Norwalk River.

“The CP243 Interlocking and Danbury Branch Dockyard projects will improve the dependability of operations on the New Haven Line during construction of the new Walk Bridge,” said James Fallon, CTDOT manager of facilities and transit. “The new Walk Bridge will be constructed in two halves. During construction, the four-track service will need to be reduced to two-tracks to allow work to progress on two tracks at a time.”

The CP243 Interlocking Project will facilitate construction of the Walk Bridge by allowing trains to switch tracks, and maintain service, during the necessary two-track outage. The Danbury Branch Dockyard Project will electrify the southern portion of the Danbury Line, up to one mile north in the area formally known as the Dockyard. The electrification of the line will allow electric commuter and freight trains to travel up to Jennings Place. The trains can be staged and change direction of service when not in use on the mainline.

Fallon said conditions are ideal for performing the work.

“Fall 2017 was a good time to start construction of the CP243 Interlocking and Danbury Branch Dockyard Projects, because the improvements need to be completed in advance of the two-track outage required for Walk Bridge construction. The improvements see BRIDGE page 14

Rumors Quashed About Opening of Sarah Long Bridge Emily Buenzle

During the week of Feb. 5, Maine DOT officials said the bridge’s opening, which was initially slated for Sept. 1 before seeing multiple delays, would be delayed yet again until May 2018.

CEG WEB EDITOR

Transportation officials in Maine recently squashed a series of rumors that the delayed opening of the Sarah Mildred Long Bridge is due to serious mechanical issues. According to a statement released Feb. 9, the bridge does not, in fact, have anything wrong with it, the Bangor Daily News reported.

During the week of Feb. 5, Maine DOT officials said the bridge’s opening, which was initially slated for Sept.

1 before seeing multiple delays, would be delayed yet again until May 2018. The delay is due to contractor Cianbro’s newly updated construction schedule, not because the bridge itself is faulty, the Bangor Daily News reported.

“The Maine and New Hampshire Departments of Transportation are aware of the rumors circulating about why the new Sarah Mildred Long Bridge hasn’t opened and speculation that there is something wrong regarding safety or mechanical issues,” said Maine DOT in a statement. “The fact is the bridge is operational and safe.

“Most of the outstanding work items are routine, and much of the remaining work is either aesthetic or weatherdependent including weatherproofing, paint touch up, and pointing and patching of concrete. Maine and New Hampshire are now evaluating all options for opening the bridge sooner than what is indicated on Cianbro’s most recent schedule.”

In fact, Maine DOT said the bridge was already commis-

sioned last month.

Maine DOT spokesman Ted Talbot said that both Maine and New Hampshire “share the public’s frustration with Cianbro’s schedule,” the Bangor Daily News reported. As per the contract, the construction company will incur a penalty of $1,000 per day for each day that the bridge remains closed to vehicles after the initial Sept. 1, 2017 deadline. Regardless, Talbot said before that there had not been any discussions between Maine DOT and Cianbro regarding

the penalties.

The deadline to finish the project in full, including removing the construction trestle by the bridge, installing railroad tracks and landscaping on either side of the structure, currently sits at June 1, 2018. If the project is not complete by then, Cianbro will face more penalties, as per the contract, the Bangor Daily News reported.

URI Engineering Students Make Case for Composite Use You probably know that composite materials are used in bicycles, tennis rackets, hockey sticks and boats, but three University of Rhode Island graduate engineering students showed 40 government, research and industry leaders last week that they could be a remedy for Rhode Island’s and the nation’s deteriorating bridges.

The URI graduate students, Irine Neba Mforsoh, a doctoral candidate in mechanical engineering, Sumeru Nayak, a doctoral candidate in civil engineering, and Annika J. Haak, a master’s degree candidate in civil engineering, presented a detailed report on bridges around the world and the nation primarily built with composite materials instead of steel and concrete.

Among those in attendance in Ranger Hall on the Kingston Campus were U.S. Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse; Peter Alviti Jr., director of the Rhode Island Department of Transportation; Buddy Croft, executive director of the Rhode Island Turnpike and Bridge Authority; members of the industry group, Composites Alliance of Rhode Island; and the Rhode Island Commerce Corp.

“URI has the credibility, the expertise and the resources to bring an important Rhode Island industry to an important Rhode Island need,” said Whitehouse, who is playing a key role in a federal spending plan to rejuvenate the country’s infrastructure. “I am excited today because we are talking with the best composite materials industry in the world. If you want the fastest, strongest and most reliable boats, you come to Rhode Island.”

“Rhode Island DOT is already using composites in bridge repairs, but we want to move to composite use in bridge construction,” said Mforsoh, one of the graduate students. “These materials have great strength, are lightweight, corrosion resistant, and it is possible to prefabricate large sections, which can lead to greater manufacturing efficiency.”

The students’ report included case studies on pedestrian and highway bridges from around the world. In the case of bridges, the key composite material is fiberglass reinforced plastic.

Aliviti praised the URI students’ research and said his department has been using composites for several years, and it is moving forward with several pedestrian

bridges made out of such materials. But he said DOT needs to do more analysis on composite use in large bridge projects.

“We’ve been asking for data so we can proceed, and it is a great help to us that URI is providing that data,” Alviti said.

The Composites Alliance, a collaboration of 70 Rhode Island companies, many of whom are based in the East Bay area and are among the world leaders in boatbuilding, and the Rhode Island Foundation supported the research project through the Rhode Island Commerce Corp. The groups worked closely with the University of Rhode Island Business Engagement Center. The students were mentored by Arun Shukla, Simon Ostrach professor of Mechanical, Industrial and Systems Engineering at URI; George Tsiatas, professor of civil and environmental engineering; and Sumanta Das, assistant professor of civil and environmental engineering.

“Rhode Islanders should expect great research, outreach and service from their flagship University and they should depend on URI to make the state a better place,” said George Nickolopoulus, relationship manager of the Business

Engagement Center. “The center takes seriously its mission of bringing together industry, government and the University to work on projects that improve Rhode Island’s economy, health and overall quality of life. We are proud that this initiative has produced such strong results in a short period of time.”

Susan Daly, vice president of strategy for the Composites Alliance, also attended the presentation.

She said the Alliance is largely represented in the marine trades, which relies heavily on composites, but it is using that expertise to move into defense, wind energy, architecture, aerospace, medical materials and infrastructure. “[This] was the culmination of an initiative that began in July 2016,” Daly said.

“We realized we needed to have data and examples so we can learn from what has been done. Dr. Shukla and his group at URI have a great deal of experience in the infrastructure arena, and so this was a great fit. This data will be very helpful.”

Proposed Bill Could Mean Good News for Logging Industry

Emily Buenzle

CEG WEB EDITOR

Good news for logging and trucking businesses that hire U.S. residents — Maine lawmakers might soon offer tax credits to these companies, Woodworking Network reported.

Senate Leader Troy Jackson is sponsoring a concept bill, set to be voted on Feb. 20, that would provide tax credits to companies hiring Maine residents, in particular. Jackson himself is a fifth-generation logger who said that these types of jobs are more necessary than ever since the state lost five pulp and paper mills within the last four years, WABI reported.

Jackson said that many landowners to the north use crews from Canada to trans-

port products that come from the forests of Maine.

“Using people out of a country that have lower exchange rates and national health care and stuff like that to try to depress wages is just unfair and something I’m never going to support,” Jackson said.

While the Professional Logging Contractors of Maine, a trade group, said it will not take a position on the proposed bill until it learns more, it did say that in recent years, the state has suffered the loss of 50 percent of its softwood market, including the loss of more than 5,000 jobs between 2014 and 2016.

Crews Work on Interlocking Project Prior to Walk Bridge

CTDOT photo

The CP243 Interlocking Project calls for a powered switch and signal system that allows trains to move from one track to another.

CTDOT photo

The CP243 Interlocking Project and the Danbury Branch Dockyard are independent of the structure replacement over the Norwalk River.

CTDOT photo

The CP243 Interlocking Project will facilitate construction of the Walk Bridge by allowing trains to switch tracks, and maintain service, during the necessary twotrack outage. The Danbury Branch Dockyard Project will electrify the southern portion of the Danbury Line, up to one mile north in the area formally known as the Dockyard.

BRIDGE from page 1

help maintain rail service, and minimize any service delays during construction.”

The CP243 Interlocking Project calls for a powered switch and signal system that allows trains to move from one track to another.

“Construction of a powered switch and signal system will reduce the length that trains need to travel on the same track to two miles from the South Norwalk Train Station to the new CP243 Interlocking,” said Fallon.

“Trains currently travel seven miles between South Norwalk Train Station Interlocking at CP241 and the Greens Farm Interlocking at CP248 before they can switch tracks. The new interlocking makes railroad operations more flexible during construction, regular rail service and maintenance activities.

“During the replacement of the four-track railroad over the Norwalk River, a two-track outage will be necessary to facilitate construction of half of the bridge at a time. At the new interlocking, trains will be able to switch over from one of the four existing tracks down to the temporary two-track operation over the railroad bridge. This allows regular service through the area to be maintained.

“CP is the control point, 2 refers to the New Haven Commuter Line and 43 is in reference to the nearest mile post on the rail line, marked from Grand Central Station.”

The Danbury Branch Dockyard Project will electrify the southern portion of the Danbury Line, up to one mile north in the area formally known as the Dockyard.

“The electrification of the line will allow electric commuter and freight trains to travel

up to Jennings Place, currently traveled only by diesel trains,” said Fallon. “The Dockyard is where trains will be staged and can switch direction of service when not in use on the mainline.”

The project also includes two new track sidings, track replacement and realignment, a communications and signal system, new catenary structures and the superstructure replacement of the railroad bridge over Ann Street.

“The Danbury Branch currently has one diesel track in service,” said Fallon. “The project adds a new track on the Danbury Branch between Marshal Street and Ann Street, and two additional tracks from Ann Street to the Dockyard area. There will be five total tracks, three electrified, in the Dockyard for the staging of trains.”

The estimated construction cost for the CP243 Interlocking project is $236 million.

The projected price tag for the Danbury Branch Dockyard project is $75 million. The Walk Bridge Program is being funded through a combination of federal and state funds. Federal dollars are allocated through a grant process with the Federal Transit Administration (FTA), while state funds are provided as part of the department’s capital bond request and approved by the state bond commission. The split between federal and state contributions is subject to change, based upon the availability and requirements of the federal grant program. The funds are requested and allocated, as needed.

Fallon noted that once the CP243

Interlocking and Danbury Branch Dockyard Projects are complete, the two-track outage needed for the Walk Bridge Replacement Project is feasible. This outage facilitates the construction of the new Walk Bridge, as well as the Fort Point Street, Osborne and East Avenue Bridge replacements.

Other work under the Walk Bridge project includes railroad embankments on each side of the river; retaining walls; the replacement of track and catenary systems; traction power; the removal of the existing high towers; and replacement of the Fort Point Street Bridge.

“All of that work will occur during the Walk Bridge Replacement Project, and will utilize the same track outages. The replacement of the Walk Bridge includes new approaches on the west and east sides of the river, including the Fort Point Street Bridge.

Removal of the existing high towers and relocation of transmission lines is necessary to occur prior to the start of construction on the mainline.”

Fallon said replacement of the Walk Bridge is critical.

“The existing four-track swing bridge is 121-years-old, and has outlived its intended lifespan. In recent years, it has suffered multiple mechanical failures. For example, in May and June 2014, the bridge failed to close in two separate instances, which greatly affects rail transportation on the mainline.” see BRIDGE page 18

The Walk Bridge opens to provide access for commercial and private maritime users along the Norwalk River. When closed, the Walk Bridge connects the rail line that passes through Norwalk. The Walk Bridge is a crucial transportation link on the Northeast Corridor, located between New York and Boston. The Northeast Corridor is the most frequented rail line in America in both ridership and service frequency. The Walk Bridge carries Metro-North’s New Haven Line, which services approximately 125,000 passengers daily, Amtrak and freight services.

The Walk Bridge Replacement Project is currently at the 30 percent design phase. It is anticipated to reach 60 percent design in early 2018, and final design at the end of 2018. Construction should begin in mid2019.

According to Chet Muckenhirn, manager of projects for general contractor Cianbro, CP243 Interlocking and Danbury Branch Dockyard construction started in October 2017, with the mobilization of work areas.

The CP243 Interlocking Project is expected to be completed in three-and-a-half years, with the Danbury Branch Dockyard project wrapping up six months earlier.

The work currently taking place involves the mobilization of work areas, fencing installation, waste stockpile area construction, tree-trimming/clearing and the removal of overhead wires and track on the Danbury Branch Line. The superstructure replacement of the railroad bridge over Ann Street will begin by spring 2018.

Muckenhirn said excavation work is required to remove and replace the existing track bed.

“This work will primarily be done using conventional excavation equipment. The work will be completed during scheduled track outages, and in stages at night or on weekends. High rail equipment will be used to place most of the new sub ballast and ballast. There will be approximately 50,000 cubic yards of dirt/material excavated during the CP243 Interlocking and Danbury Branch Dockyard projects.”

The majority of work will be completed using excavators, loaders, rack trucks, pickups, dump trucks, water and sweeper trucks.

Specialty high rail equipment will be used for track and catenary work.

The primary materials being used during construction of the CP243 Interlocking and Danbury Branch Dockyard projects are railroad ties, track and crossovers. Ballast and sub-ballast material will be used for the new track bed. New catenary structures will be constructed with catenary poles, wires and hardware. Structural steel is required for the Ann Street Bridge superstructure replacement.

As for the replacement of the Osborne and East Avenue Bridges, Muckenhirn said that work will occur concurrently with the Walk Bridge Replacement Project.

The Walk Bridge Program has developed specific plans to address community concerns during construction of the advanced rail projects. The plans outline site safety, resource protection, community and construction coordination mitigation, and will be implemented during construction.
