Work on the Hampden Bridge Bundle, a project that involves rebuilding eight bridges and rehabilitating a ninth bridge along a 4-mi. stretch of I95 in Hampden, Maine, is proceeding,

with Cianbro of Pittsfield, Maine, the lead contractor.

The eight bridge replacements are happening on the northbound and southbound sides of the interstate at four sites between Exits 174 and 180.

Three of these bridge pairs cross the Souadobscook Stream and one pair

crosses Emerson Mill Road and the Central Maine & Quebec Railway. The one bridge rehabilitation is happening at the Exit 180 off-ramp on Cold Brook Road over I-95.

The work started in March 2020, when R.F. Jordan of Ellsworth, Maine,

Maine’s Darling Marine Center Waterfront Project Under Way University of Maine President Joan Ferrini-Mundy and U.S. Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Economic Development Dana Gartzke recently visited Walpole, Maine, for a tour of the Darling Marine Center (DMC), a waterfront infrastructure improvement project that began earlier this year.

The tour, led by DMC Director Heather Leslie and DMC Laboratory Manager Timothy Miller, supplied an overview of the project, which will upgrade the center’s flowing seawater system, renovate its oldest seawater laboratory and replace its 50-yearold main pier.

The improvements are funded by an award from the U.S. Economic Development Administration with matching

funds from UMaine and state marine bond funds.

The construction will be substantially complete by Jan. 1, 2021, with only a few docks left to be built, according to the DMC. Prock Marine and The Penobscot Company, both Rockport, Maine-based companies, have the primary contracts for the project. Together, the two firms have tapped local electricians and other tradespeople to execute the complex project, which requires installing a flowing seawater system — which acts as the circulatory system of the marine laboratory. This system can sustain thousands or millions of marine organisms, depending on the experiments that DMC scientists and their partners are conducting.

“Amid all the challenges people are facing right now, we’re grateful for the support of the state and federal government to undertake this project,” said Ferrini-Mundy.

“These improvements will enable the Darling Marine Center and University of Maine more broadly to better serve the people of Maine.”

DMC researchers are helping the state’s marine fisheries and aquaculture sectors adapt, diversify, and grow in response to changing environmental conditions.

Scientists and students based at the DMC conduct applied research and work collaboratively with marine industry professionals to develop new value-added marine products and bring them to commercial scale.

DMC researchers and industry partners

also provide on-the-job training and experience to university students, the next generation of marine science professionals.

When completed, the upgraded infrastructure will benefit faculty, students and the center’s partners: fishermen, aquaculture entrepreneurs, marine industry professionals and community members through collaborative research, workforce development and business incubation programs.

“Maine’s fisheries and aquaculture industries depend on healthy coastal and oceans,” said Leslie. “Understanding these connections between people and oceans, and how they are changing is central to our work at the DMC. We thank the U.S. Economic Development Administration and all those who are supporting this important project.” 

Built in 1913, East Haddam Swing Bridge to Receive Overhaul UPGRADE from page 1

Bridge overhaul noted that the work will “include a major rehabilitation of the bridge to extend service life, improve roadway rideability for traveling public and improve swing span operation reliability.”

The bridge was built in 1913 and rehabilitated in 1988, 1998, 1999 and again in 2007.

Due to significant swing span operation problems, an emergency repair project was completed in 2016. Inspections by CTDOT’s Bridge Safety and Evaluation unit have determined that the bridge is in poor condition, primarily due to the deterioration of its superstructure, CTDOT noted on the structure’s project page at the agency’s website. When completed, the rehabilitated bridge will maintain a safe crossing of the river for vehicular and pedestrian traffic.

The overall project’s limits begin on the west side of the Connecticut River at Little Meadow Road, continue over the bridge, and end west of the Goodspeed Opera House in East Haddam.

The Middletown Press reported that CTDOT Supervising Engineer Derick Lessard said in an August meeting of the Middletown County Chamber of Commerce Haddam & East Haddam Division that the transportation department is taking into consideration surrounding businesses that will be affected by the work.

He told the newspaper that a residential driveway at Little Meadow Road and CT 82 will be used for equipment staging, with another to be built on the southern part of the same homeowner’s property.

Part of the bridge overhaul will be conducted during peak boating season, Lessard said, but noted that CTDOT will always provide passage for boats to go underneath the structure. That includes smaller vessels that

can fit under the span without the bridge needing to pivot.

Boat traffic presently flows under Span Three of the East Haddam Bridge, but he said that “there are times during this process when the navigation channel will have to be closed,” which will temporarily redirect vessels traveling on the river to cross under Span Four.

The project calls for floor beam and deck replacements on its first two spans, as well as bearing and joint replacements, substructure repairs, a full replacement of the electrical system and upgrading the mechanical system, which will make the swing operation “more viable,” Lessard said.

In addition, a 6-ft. sidewalk will be added on the southern side of the bridge.

Lessard anticipates there will be a 20 percent reduction in the swing span “cycle” time once construction is complete, the Middletown News reported.

“There will be some hang-ups and problems,” Chamber President Larry McHugh said at the August meeting, but added, “we will work those problems out.”

He described the East Haddam Bridge upgrade as a “very, very important” project, the Middletown news source said.

Signs will be posted in the surrounding area warning motorists of the bridge project in advance of the project next year, including at the intersection of CT 151/82 and the crossing at CT 82/54, according to CTDOT. At least a 14-day closure notice will be posted for any construction, explained Lessard. Like work on the Arrigoni Bridge, the next span upstream in Middletown, there will be alternating one-way traffic 24 hours a day during the project timeline, he noted, adding that the East Haddam construction will continue throughout the year, even during the winter. 
