VTrans Replaces Highway Bridge in Three Days Using Slide-In System By Jay Adams CEG CORRESPONDENT
A few years ago, construction teams could replace a big, steel and concrete bridge in 61 months. With the remarkable advancement of new technologies, Rhode Island and other states have replaced bridges in 61 days. But 61 hours? The Vermont Agency of Transportation (VTrans) replaced an Interstate 91 bridge in White River Junction in
just one weekend, using an innovative technique to minimize the impact on drivers. “We have done this kind of work on smaller scales, but not on this scale,” said Eric Filkhorn, communications specialist at VTrans. The bridge is one of two Hartford bridges, side by side. VTrans will be replacing the parallel bridge in a similar, whirlwind amount of time. see BRIDGE page 4
