Chatham, Mass.-based Outermost Harbor Marine (OHM) essentially self-performed a nearly $500,000 dredging operation to open a channel at its marina in Cape Cod’s Chatham Harbor, a project that started on Jan. 29 of this year and was completed on March 29. The dredge operations pumped out more than 30,000 cu. yds. of sand that was re-used to repair nearby beaches and construct several dunes to assist in flood control issues. The goal of the project was to dredge an entrance channel that led directly to the ocean, which is on average 80 ft. wide (120 ft. at its maximum with the slide-slopes) and 1,500 ft. long. The area was dredged to 5 ft. deep at low tide. “Prior to the work, the channel, basically, was not navigable,” said Harrison Kahn, a coowner of OHM along with his brother, Devin Kahn, which they purchased six years ago. “Boats could only get out at limited times during the tide schedule. Last year, we attempted to The maximum length of the boats using the marina now is 60 ft., dredge the channel by purchasing a smaller with most powered by outboard engines, which are perfect for dredge from GeoForm International Inc. — a navigating the inter-coastal waters in the Chatham area, and for Dino6 hydraulic dredge with a cutterhead trips to Nantucket, Martha’s Vineyard and fishing. mechanism.

The Rhode Island Department of Transportation is halfway through a project that calls for replacing two bridges in eight days each. Using a self-propelled modular transporter, crews were recently able to set two spans — four sections — on the Centerville Bridge carrying I-95 over Centerville Road (Route 117). Traffic was rerouted to a temporary median in the middle of the highway. Next, crews will tackle the nearby Toll Gate Bridge using the same method. Combined, the two bridges accommodate 174,00 vehicles daily. “The basic idea is we’ve been working hard to use accelerated bridge replacement to minimize traffic impacts,” said project manager Paul Schofield. “Normally we would have to do long traffic detours. A large project like these can take several years with a traditional method.” Crews first demolished the existing bridge and all the foundations. The SPMT features more than 200 wheels, steel support beams and a hydraulic system. It retrieves the new bridge set on temporary shoring by the side of the road, and carries it slowly to the bridge foundation and lifts it into place. “You need to have the real estate available to do this kind of bridge,” Schofield said. “We were fortunate in that this location has state owned land by I-95. We were able to take advantage of that and build the bridge along the side and use this method to roll it into place.”  CEG see BRIDGES page 12
