In Connecticut, pre-construction efforts are under way on The Walk Bridge Replacement Project. The project is currently at 60 percent design, and is expected to start construction by summer of next year. “Preliminary work is being conducted to determine the location of underground utilities and drainage,” said Connecticut Department of Transportation (CTDOT) project manager James A. Fallon. “The Test Pile Program (TPP) was conducted in late 2018 to collect noise and vibration data.” The TPP was a sequence of pile-driving activities to gather information that helps the program identify potential effects of noise and vibration to the area neighboring the Walk Bridge. Specifically, 30-in. diameter steel pipe piles
Pre-construction work is underway on The Walk Bridge Replacement Project.
and PZ 35 steel sheet pile pairs were driven in the river at various locations for proposed Walk Bridge construction. Fallon said replacing the 123-year-old deteriorated bridge with a resilient bridge structure enhances the safety and reliability of rail service, while also providing operational flexibility and ease of maintenance.

RhodeWorks Projects to Involve 177 Bridges Across State

Construction includes the critical “missing move” to connect Route 10 North to Route 6 West.
RIDOT is entering its second full year of construction on the $410 million Route 6-10 Interchange Project to replace seven out of nine structurally deficient bridges in the interchange.

Gina Raimondo. “We’re delivering on the promises in RhodeWorks to pull us out of the bottom of lists that talk about poor roads and bridges and move us toward a day when we’ll rank among the top states in the country with a well-maintained transportation system.” RIDOT director Peter Alviti Jr. described the projects as “another major down payment on our comeback story to deliver a safe, high-quality transportation system.” The need for the numerous projects comes largely as many of the highways reach about the 50-year mark and older simultaneously, said RIDOT spokesman Charles St. Martin. “A lot of the projects involve Interstate bridges and highway bridges,” St. Martin said. “Some of it has been overlooked, but some of it is because the see RHODEWORKS page 14

Following numerous traffic pattern shifts last fall, construction continued through the winter with demolition of old bridge sections, earthwork and foundation work for new bridges.

Maine Provides I-95, Piscataqua River Bridge Construction Update The Maine Department of Transportation began making traffic changes to accommodate work on the I-95 Piscataqua River bridge, Maine’s vital connection to New Hampshire and the rest of New England. The I-95 Exit 1 southbound on-ramp at Dennett Road in Kittery will be closed to facilitate construction activities. Southbound lane closures on the bridge began the week of June 17. Those closures will happen between 7:00 p.m. and 3:30 a.m., Monday through Friday. At least two lanes of traffic will be open until 10:00 p.m. each night. Single-lane traffic will only be happening after 10:00 p.m. The contractor will be narrowing lanes from Exit 2 in Maine across the bridge to the New Hampshire side. Crews also will be installing temporary concrete barriers to
close the shoulder on the Maine approach to the bridge. Most importantly, the DOT is asking drivers to be attentive and careful. Please stay in your lane and obey the work zone speed limit (55 mph) as you pass our crews. Stay focused on the road and don’t rubberneck. Drivers should also stay on I-95 and avoid taking detours onto local roads. The bridge is going to be your best option for smooth and safe travel through Kittery. This work is part of "Maine Ahead: Building a Better Gateway" a collaboration involving the Maine Department of Transportation, the Maine Turnpike Authority, and the New Hampshire Department of Transportation.

FAA Announces $1M Grant to Airport in New Hampshire WASHINGTON U.S. Department of Transportation Secretary Elaine L. Chao announced that the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) will award $495 million in airport infrastructure grants, the second allotment of the total $3.18 billion in Airport Improvement Program (AIP) funding for airports across the United States. This significant investment in airport improvements in New Hampshire will fund construction and rehabilitation projects that will help maintain high levels of safety in U.S. aviation, said U.S. Department of Transportation Secretary Elaine L. Chao. Grant awards include: Lebanon Municipal Airport, Lebanon, NH, $1 million grant funds will be used to update the Airport Master Plan and construct a snow removal equipment building. A total of 358 grants to 327 airports around the country in 46 states and the Pacific Islands. Selected projects include runway reconstruction and rehabilitation, construction of firefighting facilities, and the maintenance of taxiways, aprons, and termi-
nals. The construction and equipment supported by this funding increases the airports safety, emergency response capabilities, and capacity, and could support further economic growth and development within each airport’s region. Airport infrastructure in the United States, with 3,332 airports and 5,000 paved runways, supports our economic competitiveness and improves quality of life. According to the FAAs most recent economic analysis, U.S. civil aviation accounts for $1.6 trillion in total economic activity and supports nearly 11 million jobs. Under Secretary Chao’s leadership, the Department is delivering AIP investments for the American people, who depend on reliable infrastructure. Airports can receive a certain amount of AIP entitlement funding each year based on activity levels and project needs. If their capital project needs exceed their available entitlement funds, the FAA can supplement their entitlements with discretionary funding.

Medford Street Bridge to Close Through Spring 2020 in Mass. The Green Line Extension (GLX) project and the city of Somerville High School (SHS) Project have accelerated the scheduled closure of the Medford Street Bridge in Gilman Square at Pearl Street. The new closure period for the Medford Street Bridge began during the late evening of May 17, 2019, and will run through spring of 2020. The closure will provide the SHS Project with staging areas to perform crane work this spring and summer while enabling GLX to modify the bridge span and perform structural improvements to accommodate new Green Line tracks below. For the duration of this closure, all vehicular traffic will be detoured around the work zone via Pearl Street and McGrath Highway. Detour maps and directions
including local pedestrian and bicycle routes are available on www.mass.gov/GLX in the Bridge Closures section. Recent schedules had projected the Medford Street Bridge would close in July 2019. This new timeline was established after careful coordination between GLX and the SHS Project, which are progressing in close physical proximity to one another. Advancing the Medford Street Bridge closure by six weeks will provide critical logistical benefits for both projects. For more detailed information on the Medford Street Bridge closure and other local road closures now in effect, including detours for vehicular, pedestrian, and bike traffic, visit the GLX website at Mass.gov/GLX. 

Vt. Receives $500K for Emergency DOT Ramps Up Roadside Brush Repairs to Flood-Damaged Roads Management Across Maine U.S. Transportation Secretary Elaine L. Chao announced May 28 the immediate availability of $500,000 in “quick release� Emergency Relief (ER) funds from the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) to help repair flood-damaged roads throughout Vermont. The funds were approved shortly after being requested by the Vermont Agency of Transportation. Vermont experienced flooding and rapid runoff as the result of heavy rain and snowmelt on April 15 to16 and on April 19 to 20. The damage was experienced in the following counties: Windham, Bennington, Windsor, Rutland, Orange, Washington,
Caledonia and Essex. The $500,000 will be used to pay for the repairs made to restore essential traffic and prevent additional damage in the disaster areas. Damage assessments from this event are still under way for other federal-aid highways in the region that were damaged by the severe weathers event in April. This initial “quick releaseâ€? will pay for short-term repairs while the state continues to assess long-term repairs, expected at more than $2 million. The FHWA’s ER program provides funding for highways damaged by natural disasters or catastrophic events. 
The Maine Department of Transportation has begun controlling brush along selected state roads. This is part of an ongoing, integrated approach that includes mowing, hand removal or the use of herbicides to control roadside vegetation. When controlled, roadside trees are easy to maintain. If they are allowed to grow, these trees block drivers’ views of large animals, prevent proper drainage and block sunlight that helps melt snow and ice in the winter. Reducing vegetation near guardrails protects workers from tripping hazards and ticks. All herbicide treatments for brush, weeds
and invasive plants are selective to minimize the impact to surrounding vegetation. Beginning in 2004, MaineDOT started every-other-year herbicide application to further reduce use. Municipalities and private citizens living adjacent to state roads may contact MaineDOT to enter into Cooperative Vegetation Management agreements if they are concerned about herbicide use. Agreements outline the municipal or landowner responsibilities for maintaining roadside vegetation. For more information, please contact Statewide Vegetation Manager Robert Moosmann at 207/592-0774. 

DOT Sees RhodeWorks as Infrastructure ‘Comeback Story’ RHODEWORKS from page 4
highway system was constructed at about the same time. So, they are all becoming due at the same time. They are starting to get past their service lives and need rehabilitation. “We’re pretty much entering the fourth year of the Rhodeworks Program, a 10-year program. We are in the implementation stage of the plan. Last year was a busy construction season. This year is busy, if not busier.” RIDOT is managing the numerous projects using a project management model which involves assigning project managers to each project. Each project is reviewed for traffic impacts, the impacts on the community and how they interplay with each other. When it makes sense the project work zones are scheduled to coincide with each other so that traffic is shifted only once. “We have a project starting in Bristol that will involve a bridge closure,” St. Martin said. “We’re making sure work is done this year so when we have the bridge closure next year, we’ll detour on the parallel state road we are working on this year. We picked our closure time so one follows the other. That’s just an example, but we are doing that in many locations. When we get to each individual project, we have frequent meetings to discuss how the project is going to run, traf-

fic implementation and what steps we have to take. We have a business outreach person who gets out into the community and talks about things that are coming their way. They also do it on the construction side. The media office also looks at impacts. What do we
need to help get the word out? What motorists can expect of those impacts? It’s a multi-prong approach to outreach to make sure motorists are as aware as they can be for see RHODEWORKS page 15

The projects in the RhodeWorks program include a combination of bridge repair, replacement and preservation activities on 177 bridges.

the work that is coming.” When possible, RIDOT also is implementing traffic changes on weekends, when traffic is lighter, giving them the chance to observe and tweak the pattern if necessary.” Projects on the 2019 construction season include: • Route 6-10 Interchange Project: RIDOT is entering its second full year of construction on this $410 million project to replace seven RIDOT photo out of nine structurally deficient bridges in the inter- “We have another banner year for construction, with change.

Bridge Closure Incidents Accelerate Replacement Project REPLACEMENT from page 1
“The replacement increases rail transportation capacities and efficiencies along the Northeast Corridor (NEC), while maintaining and improving navigational capacity and dependability of the Norwalk River. Replacement of the Walk Bridge is necessary to improve bridge reliability, incorporate bridge redundancy and provide a sustainable structure for significant weather events. Replacement is essential to accommodate current and future rail service and marine traffic.” By 2011, a pattern of bridge closure incidents raised concerns. During this time, the Walk Bridge failed to close 12 out of 138 openings, and failed 16 times in 2013. In 2014, the bridge failed twice within a twoweek period. These events caused significant service delays and required emergency busing of rail passengers. The Commissioner of CTDOT signed an emergency declaration letter, accelerating the Walk Bridge Replacement Project. The project is expected to reach 90 percent design this summer. While the total cost of the Walk Bridge Program is $1.2 billion, the current Walk Bridge Replacement Project construction estimate is $511 million. The construction cost of the other elements of the program, including the CP243 Interlocking and Danbury Branch Dockyard projects, is approximately $424 million. “The overall Program offers many benefits to the community that we want people to understand,” said Fallon. “The Walk Bridge Program enhances safety, reliability and ease of travel to, from and through Norwalk, Conn., and along the MNR NHL and the overall Northeast Corridor. The Program’s interrelated road, rail and utility projects preserve and improve upon key assets, like the railroad infrastructure and the Norwalk River. “Projects are conducted simultaneously to take advantage of scheduled track outages and to streamline work. This approach reduces rail disruptions, lowers costs and shortens construction durations that would be necessary to complete the infrastructure improvements individually. The Program promotes economic development through infrastructure investment, the protection of current and potential up-river development, increased railroad reliability and reduced road congestion for residents, commuters, businesses and tourists.” Fallon noted that when working near an active railroad, a navigable waterway and a busy urban center, construction staging and logistics can be challenging. “The Program is committed to maintaining both rail service and marine traffic throughout construction. There are adjacent

properties and buildings as close as nine feet to the railroad bridge. Coordination between many stakeholders, including the city of Norwalk, Metro-North Railroad, the United States Coast Guard, the Norwalk Harbor Management and Shellfish Commissions, Marine Police, local neighborhood groups and associations, the business community,
local transit organizations, historical groups, rowing clubs, residents, commuters, etc., requires open communication and active engagement. Working with the community is one of the elements that makes the project so rewarding.” A crane and other equipment were set up last fall to complete the TPP that included a
series of pile-driving activities in advance of the Walk Bridge Replacement Project. The piles were driven with diesel and hydraulic driving hammers and hydraulic vibrator hammers from a crane-mounted barge. Land-based H-piles were driven near the Fort Point Street and East Avenue rail bridges. There was close coordination with nearby stakeholders, including the Maritime Aquarium. All activities were monitored with noise and vibration equipment. Data collected through this activity assists in identifying potential effects of noise and vibration to the area neighboring the Walk Bridge. It helps form a noise and vibration plan to mitigate construction impacts during replacement of the bridge. The removal of old wood piles at the former marina site was included for water safety reasons. Aside from preliminary activities, the bulk of the work has not begun. “The completion of the TPP can be considered an early milestone, but construction on the Walk Bridge Project is not anticipated to begin until summer 2020,” said Fallon. “Additional subsurface investigations, including test pits, are needed in advance of construction on the Walk Bridge. At this time, this work is unscheduled. An advanced utility relocation project is being designed, and is anticipated to be in construction in 2020.” The first year will consist mostly of inwater work and establishing the staging areas. “This includes demolition of the IMAX theater, and relocation of the railroad power lines underground. In year two, we remove the existing high towers and construct the lift towers for the new Walk Bridge. We will start the construction of the southerly two tracks. While the southern tracks are out of service, work will begin on the concurrent Fort Point Street, East Avenue and Osborne Avenue railroad bridge replacement projects. During the third year of construction, we will complete the Walk Bridge’s southern half approaches. “The southern lift span will be built offsite using approximately three million pounds of steel and 45,000 bolts. The span will be floated-in and installed over an extended weekend while the existing swing span [all four tracks] is simultaneously removed and floated north for demolition. The Program would then open the two new southern tracks and begin work on the northern half of the bridge. This work will mirror the southern half and extends into year 4/5. The completion of the northern and southern halves of the bridges at Fort Point Street, East Avenue, and Osborne Avenue will occur simultaneously, to coincide with track outages for the Walk Bridge.” see REPLACEMENT page 18
