Project Description:
The $27 million State Route 28 Etna Bypass project was completed in seven months. Mascaro had to maintain traffic while completing a bridge erection that had severely skewed girders with built-in post-pour horizontal end rotation. Mascaro called it a “tough build.” The construction included roadway and bridge reconstruction and 30,000 cubic yards of concrete during phases IV and V of the project, all while protecting vehicle traffic and pedestrians below the bridge.
Phase IV included a Northbound Route 28 11-span bridge over Route 8, and three-span bridge on Northbound Route 28 over Ravine Street, Route 28 soldier pile wall, and new bridge deck over Scouts Reservation Road.
Phase V included reconstruction of the bridge over a railroad from a four-span to a single-span structure as well as construction of a new 1100-foot-long retaining wall south of the railroad bridge and 4-4-foot-long retaining wall north of the railroad bridge. Mascaro constructed new single-span and seven-span superstructure ramps as well.
