No. 10 - Beach Road over Lagoon Pond Bridge Replacement
Jan. 1, 2016

Deemed structurally deficient, the wood pilings sat on an unstable layer of peat and could not be reinforced any further. Two phases of the bridge replacement included construction of a pre-engineered temporary bridge and demolition of the existing bridge followed by the construction of the permanent bridge. Access to the project site was restricted to ferry boats or barges. Additionally, the team had to overcome complications due to the close proximity of the construction site to the temporary bridge.
