By Irwin rapoport CEG CORRESPONDENT Crews from the Maine-based Cianbro Corporation began the reconstruction of the existing Sarah Mildred Long Bridge (SML) that links Kittery, Maine, and Portsmouth, N.H., last January and are proceeding on schedule to have the new bridge open to traffic in September 2017. The $170 million bridge replacement is a joint-venture between the Maine and N.H. Departments of Transportation, with MaineDOT serving as the lead. “This project is part of a ‘three bridge agreement’ between the two states to address their jointly owned bridges spanning the Piscataqua River,” stated MaineDOT Web page. “The other two bridges are the ‘high level’ bridge that carries I-95, and the Memorial Bridge that links the communities of Portsmouth and Kittery, and offers vehicle, bike and pedestrian travel.” Built in 1940, the SML bridge is a regional link between Maine and New Hampshire, and is a critical back-up route in case of disruption on the Interstate 95 bridge.

Rutland to Begin Expansion of Emergency DepartmentThe Green Mountain Care Board approved an amended

Certificate of Need for an expansion and renovation of theemergency department (ED) at Rutland Regional MedicalCenter. The project, scheduled to begin in February, isexpected to take up to 18 months and will include 1,840 sq.-ft. (170.94 sq m) of new construction and partial renovationsof the current 13,657 sq.-ft. (1,268.77 sq m) area. TheEmergency Department will remain open during the entireproject.

The number of emergency treatment rooms, currently 19,will be increased to 26 with the new addition designed forfive behavioral health treatment rooms and two isolationrooms that can be converted to behavioral health rooms. Inaddition, the lobby area will be secured for the safety ofpatients, visitors and staff by creating a controlled access topublic waiting areas. A new security office will be addedalong with enhanced security measures. Total estimatedproject costs are just over $6 million.

The renovation project will combine the Fast Track side ofthe ED with the higher acuity side, resulting in improvedworkflow and more efficient use of space. An additional cor-ridor will be added for access by ancillary services and forease of movement. The new corridor will feature a nursingstation and staff support area.

A main component of the project is the construction of thebehavioral health treatment area. The addition will featureimproved safety and security measures for both behavioralhealth patients and other emergency room patients and visi-tors. Behavioral health treatment rooms will be private withwindows, providing much needed natural light for patientswith extended stays.

“We’re extremely excited about what this expansion willprovide for our community,” said Tom Huebner, CEO andpresident of Rutland Regional Medical Center. “In additionto increasing the overall ED space and number of treatmentrooms to accommodate today’s patients and caregiver needs,the project is designed with the goal of enhancing efficientflow and delivery of care for our patients and their lovedones.”

Designed with input from the hospital’s ED staff, thefocus was on maximum efficiency — improving privacy,patient transportation, work flow and collaboration amongcare team members.

“We are committed to ensuring our community has anemergency department able to provide the very best care toeach and every patient at any time of day or night,” said ToddGregory, medical director of emergency services. “A greatdeal of consideration and planning has gone into the designto support best care, improve efficiency and ensure anenhanced patient experience. Once complete, our new EDwill help us to continue to provide top quality emergencymedicine in an environment that will better promote thedelivery of compassionate care.”

“Renovating space that is in use 24 hours a day will pres-ent a challenge to our staff and patients in the ED,” said MaryNemeth, VP of support services. “However, we are confidentthat the staff and contractors will work together to see thatthe patients are served well during the process. The finishedproduct will improve patient flow, lead to improved privacy,and allow our caregivers to continue to provide quality med-ical care.”

IBTTA Applauds Rhode Island Governor’s Bold SolutionPatrick D. Jones, executive director and

CEO, International Bridge, Tunnel andTurnpike Association, said, “I applaudRhode Island Governor Gina Raimondoand state legislators for passing RhodeWorks to raise revenue for much-neededbridge repairs and maintenance across thestate of Rhode Island. This is a bold moveto maintain major infrastructure, keep res-idents of Rhode Island safe and grow theeconomy. Other states, including nearbyConnecticut, are watching.”

"While the gas tax has been a solid toolto fund roads and bridges in the past, itisn’t enough today,” said Jones. “Congresshas not raised the federal gas tax since

1993 and it has lost much of its purchasingpower since then. In response to the needfor additional dedicated funding, RhodeIsland and many other states are looking atalternatives such as tolling. Tolling is oneof the most powerful and effective tools inthe tool box to fund and finance vitaltransportation infrastructure. Across 35states, tolling generates more than $14 bil-lion annually in revenues to support near-ly 6,000 miles of toll roads. Therefore, wecommend the governor and state legisla-ture for turning to this important tool. Andwith all-electronic tolling, there is no stop-ping and waiting. Trucks pay their tollwhile moving at highway speed beneath

an overhead gantry.“With the passage of Rhode Works, the

smallest state in the nation has taken themost significant action to address theirinfrastructure needs with both a reason-able plan and a steady revenue stream torepair and maintain Rhode Island’s deteri-orating bridges. Governor Raimondo’sRhode Works program places a toll onbig-rigs traveling up and down the Eastcoast. Each truck toll will be as little as $3and the maximum for a one-way routefrom Connecticut to Massachusetts alongInterstate 95 will be $20,” said Jones.

The International Bridge, Tunnel andTurnpike Association (IBTTA) is the

worldwide association for the owners andoperators of toll facilities and the busi-nesses that serve them. Founded in 1932,IBTTA has members in more than 20countries and on six continents. Throughadvocacy, thought leadership and educa-tion, members are implementing state-of-the-art, innovative user-based transporta-tion financing solutions to address the crit-ical infrastructure challenges of the 21stcentury.

Long Bridge instead of implementing the rehabil-itation project outlined in the March 2011Memorandum of Agreement between Maine andNew Hampshire regarding the three PiscataquaRiver bridges,” stated the Web page, which notedthat the DOTs are splitting the cost 50/50.

“The existing bridge was designed with an esti-mated life span of 50 years,” said Ron Taylor,MaineDOT’s resident engineer on the SMLreplacement project. “With proper maintenanceand periodic inspection it has lasted 77 years —performing well, enduring the harsh environmentof the Piscataqua River. The structure has sus-tained structural deterioration that warranted thereplacement of the bridge with a new structure.”

For more detailed information on the lessonslearned in terms of rehabilitation of older bridges and howthe DOT can better look after these structures, Taylor sug-gested reading the 2014 Keeping Our Bridges Safe Report,which can be found at http://www.maine.gov/mdot/.

In September 2014, a $25 million TIGER (TransportationInvestment Generating Economic Recovery) Grant wasawarded for the rail portion of the bridge.

The design process began in 2013, with the design pre-pared by the team of the Figg Enginering Group/Hardesty &Hanover LLC. The “open process” consulted stakeholders inseveral forums and came up with a design that was func-tional and aesthetically pleasing.

“The new 2,800-foot bridge will be constructed at a high-er elevation than the existing [bridge], with a vehicular struc-ture stacked over a railroad level,” stated the Cianbro Webpage for the project, “as well as a longer lift span at 300 feet.Other differing characteristics include long open spans,fewer piers, and wider shoulders.”

The contractor is constructing concrete roadway and

railroad superstructures, a 300-ft.-long (91.44 m) steel liftspan, four angular lift span towers and approach roads andintersections.

The “new bridge alignment improves marine navigationby straightening the navigational channel, allowing largerships to access the port and shipyard,” according toMaineDOT.

With a a larger 56 ft. (17 m) vertical clearance in its “rest-ing” position, “there will be 68 percent fewer bridge open-ings, in the normal operating, ‘resting’ position, the bridge’slift span is at its middle level, allowing motor vehicles tocross the river. The new bridge’s movable ‘hybrid’ span liftsup to allow passage of tall vessels and lowers to railroadtrack level for trains to cross,” according to MaineDOT.

Other key features include 200 ft. (61 m) precast concretetowers to support the 300 ft. long streamlined structural steelbox girder lift span; 11 fewer piers than the existing bridge,which also improves the gateway span leading into down-town Portsmouth by eliminating an existing median pier.

“The new bridge will see an increase in traffic as it will notbe restricting load weights, as it is currently,” said Taylor.“Facilitating the rail traffic was a big factor in the design ofthe bridge. It serves the PNSY — that is of great importanceto the Department of Defense and economically to both thestates of Maine and New Hampshire. This project providesfor rail service across the river tying into existing rail service.Coordination between the PNSY and PanAM has beenongoing through the design and construction process. Theproject to date has been ongoing for 476 days without a losttime injury.”

Mike Hawkins, a principal of Hardesty & Hanover and itssenior project manager, also commented on the designprocess, noting that the CM/GC process had a positiveimpact in the design of both the vertical lift towers and thelift span.

“As design progressed, an excellent site for casting con-crete segments adjacent to the bridge became available and

RIDOT Reorganization Focus:Accountability, Performance

The Rhode Island Department ofTransportation (RIDOT) announced the lat-est step in the largest reorganization in itshistory that will position the department toeffectively and efficiently manage anddeliver transportation projects on time, onbudget and with the highest quality.

On Feb. 19, the Department ofAdministration held public hearings onchanges to the classified and unclassifiedservice classifications and pay plansdesigned to authorize 14 positions atRIDOT. This is being done within RIDOT’semployment level cap and budgeting hasalready been allocated for them. Actual hir-ing of new personnel cannot proceed with-out this public hearing process.

“While we’ve worked hard to support theimprovement of our roads and bridges, aprimary focus of the new administrationalso has been to move quickly to get ourhouse in order and put the department in thebest position for success,” Peter Alviti Jr.,RIDOT director said. “A project manage-ment approach — an industry standard in allmanner of construction — will ensure thatthe taxpayers’ dollars are protected as webuild a world-class transportation systemand a stronger Rhode Island.”

RIDOT’s approach follows a philosophyof “plan your work, work your plan” andincludes distinct divisions for the planningand implementation of projects. This allowsboth units to focus on divisional objectiveswhile still contributing toward the depart-ment’s overall goal of renewing RhodeIsland’s infrastructure and supporting eco-nomic growth.

The centerpiece of RIDOT’s reorganiza-tion is the new division of project manage-ment. This division is charged with over-sight and management of all projects frominitial design through final completion.Project managers at RIDOT will closelymonitor schedules, coordinate permits andregulatory requirements, and ensure thatprojects are completed on time, on budgetand at the highest quality. The hearingincludes four classifications of positions forproject management, one administrator, onemanager and two levels of project man-agers. RIDOT intends to seek approximate-ly 20 individuals for those jobs in the com-ing year.

Other new classes of positions to be cre-ated, or include a change in title, are as fol-lows:

• administrator, division of planning* • chief operating officer* • legislative director* • administrator, stormwater management • administrator, office of transit, new

starts, operations and transportation alterna-tives

• chief safety officer • manager, construction management • manager, in-house design engineering • administrator, civil rights programs • manager, materials and quality assur-

ance* these positions are considered unclassi-

fiedThe process follows the creation of three

other unclassified positions last fall — chiefof staff, director of communications andpolicy director.

RIDOT also is announcing the hiring ofCelia J. Blue as its new chief of staff. Bluehas implemented performance measuresand accountability metrics at MassDOT.Recruitment is under way for the other twopositions.

Another major focus of RIDOT’s reor-ganization is the abolishment of 40 fundedadministrative positions — including adeputy chief engineer, a building specialist,a photographer and other management posi-tions — and transferring them to the newmaintenance and operation division.Responsible for day-to-day work such asfilling potholes, plowing snow, sweepingroads, cutting grass and repairing traffic sig-nals and street lights, the number of on-the-ground workers has declined significantlyover the years. These additional positionsrepresent 1 out of every 19 employees atRIDOT, a 20 percent increase in staffingand a down payment toward improvingmaintenance for Rhode Island’s roads andbridges.

“Preventative maintenance is critical inkeeping our roads and bridges in good con-dition and extending their service life,”Alviti said. “It’s common sense. If we keepdoing what we’ve always done in our main-tenance division, we’ll get what we havenow — a division that lacks the tools andpersonnel to do its job.”

To go along with the new emphasis onproject management, RIDOT also is imple-menting an asset management processthroughout the department. This involvesdeveloping a comprehensive infrastructureinventory, tracking each piece to assure it isproperly maintained, reducing the need forcostly rehabilitation and reconstruction proj-ects.

“Using a project management approachwith a strong asset management plan inplace will streamline RIDOT, get us back tobasics and transition the department intoone that is keenly focused on planning anddelivering road and bridge projects,” Alvitisaid.

thus made precast construction a viableoption for the towers,” he said. “We devel-oped a precast segmental tower alternativethat was included in our 60 percent submis-sion. Both the precast and cast in place con-struction [with self-climbing formwork]alternatives were priced by the CM and ICEand the precast alternative was selected as thepreferred lift tower fabrication/erection alter-native.

“Also, design/fabrication feedback fromone of the inland steel fabricators for the liftspan led us to come up with a design thatwould allow fabrication of the boxes at aninland facility,” he added, “with the lift spanbox member sub-assemblies then trucked toa barge near the site for final fabrication. When fabricationcosts were compared between the two alternatives, the multi-box girder design reduced fabrication costs significantly forthe lift span and thus was the alternative that was pro-gressed.”

MaineDOT has worked to come up with a traffic plan thatminimizes the impact.

“Traffic will be impacted for around 10 months at the endof the project as it intercepts the old bridge at the Kitteryside,” stated a press release. “The Long Bridge will have laneclosures as needed, and as weather permits, from 8:00 a.m.to 3:30 p.m. daily for up to six days. Flag persons, electron-ic message signs and warning signs will be used to notifymotorists of lane closures.”

The bridge is being constructed via a construction manag-er/general contractor alternative delivery approach.

“This approach was taken to better understand the risksinvolved in the construction process and address them dur-ing the design process, ultimately saving on the cost of con-struction,” said Taylor. “The process is being evaluated and Iwould anticipate it being used again for other potentiallyhigh risk projects. The process has worked well for this proj-ect, collaborating on the project has been instrumental in thisbeing a successful process.”

Cianbro is satisfied with the pace of the construction andthe cooperation between it and the DOTs.

Ongoing work includes the installation of work trestles,bridge sub-structures and super-structures and lift span tow-ers. In the summer of 2016, work will begin on bridge/road-way finishes and later in the fall, the demolition of the exist-ing bridge sub- and super-structures will begin. In 2017, anew fender will be constructed.

There will be well over 100 construction workers on-siteat peak periods, with most of the work being done during dayshifts. The major subcontractors include: Case Foundation

for drilled shaft installations; and Shaw BrothersConstruction for earth work and paving.

The demolition of the existing bridge is expected to resultin the removal of 29,050 tons (26,353 t) of concrete, 5,111tons (4,636 t) of steel, 9,973 tons (9,047 t) of asphalt, withmaterials recycled on-site as much as possible.

The lift span on the new bridge weighs approximately2,000 tons (1,814 t) and will use approximately 1,300 tons(1,179 t) of steel. The new bridge has approximately 125,000tons (113,398 t) of concrete, and 6,785 tons (6,155 t) ofasphalt.

The project will require a variety of equipment, includingcranes, drilled shaft equipment, barges, excavators, and othersupport equipment.

“The work schedule was developed with input from thecontractor during the CM/GC process attempting to mini-

mize impacts to the traveling public and sur-rounding communities,” said Taylor.“Communication between the DOT andCianbro is extremely important to the proj-ect. Dealing with unanticipated circum-stances, requests for information, andreviewing submittals in a timely manner isnecessary to maintain the project schedule.”

Environmental concerns also are beingaddressed to minimize the impact on theriver.

“The majority of work for the new bridgeis being performed from temporary trestlesin close proximity to the location of the newbridge,” said Taylor. “No work is occurringover open water, and every effort is beingmade to prevent any debris from falling intothe water. Demolition will occur in stages;

the existing bridge will be demolished and floated out inlarge sections. During demolition an environmental pollu-tion control plan will be followed and monitored.”

Cianbro has been involved in many bridge projects inMaine and its input is welcomed by MaineDOT.

“Cianbro’s knowledge of heavy structure constructionwas important to understanding the construction related tothe project from their perspective and being able to designfor anticipated construction techniques,” said Taylor.“Incentives are in place to achieve key milestones like open-ing the new bridge to traffic and completing the project. Onthe other hand, disincentives are also in place should thesemilestones not be achieved.”

Bridge Replacement Includes Rail, Pedestrian Improvements

Along with the Capital Program, thedepartment is releasing a report entitled,“Optimizing the State of Connecticut:Transportation Capital InfrastructureProgram, December 2015.” The reportreviews the performance of the DOT in

delivering capital investments. The goal,Redeker noted, is to optimize the capitalfunding for all its transportation modes andto improve continuously its ability to deliv-er maximum infrastructure improvementsfor each dollar expended. The departmentis achieving this by delivering projects on

time and on or under budget. Continuously

improving project delivery and using inno-

vative construction techniques also have

increased the DOT’s capacity to provide

the state with higher quality transportation

improvements that maximize the state’s

return on its investment.

The Baker-Polito Administrationfiled “An Act FinancingImprovements to Municipal Roadsand Bridges” that included $200 mil-lion for local transportation infrastruc-ture improvements across theCommonwealth, otherwise known asChapter 90 funds. Additionally, thislegislation includes a request toauthorize funding for a small bridgeprogram and a separate authorizationrequest for the federal aid highwayprogram.

“We are pleased to file $200 millionthis year to support local officials andare committed to maintaining thesame funding level for three years tosupport long term planning and eco-nomic growth,” said Gov. CharlieBaker. “Every city and town dependson access to these flexible transporta-tion funds and these investments willensure municipal improvementsremain front and center.”

Chapter 90 funding is issued bymunicipality and predetermined by aformula that factors in a municipality’spopulation, road miles and employ-ment.

“Our partners at the local levelunderstand best that building strongercommunities starts with making theshort and long-term improvements toguarantee a reliable transportation net-work,” said Lt. Gov. Karyn Polito.“We look forward to the legislature’sthoughtful review and continuedefforts to place our cities and towns atthe forefront.”

Chapter 90 reimburses cities andtowns for costs incurred for eligibletransportation projects. Cities andtowns must submit receipts to theMassDOT highway division district inwhich they are located which verifiesthat the expenditures qualify for reim-bursement under Chapter 90. Thehighway districts in turn submit thesereceipts to the Department ofTransportation’s fiscal departmentwhich facilitates the reimbursementsto cities and towns.

Part of the legislation includes arequest to authorize $50 million for afive-year small bridge program. Thefunding will support approximately1,300 bridges on municipal roadsacross Massachusetts that span

lengths between 10 to 20 ft. (3 to 6 m).The new program will target smallbridge projects that are not eligible forfederal aid under existing bridgereplacement or rehabilitation pro-grams, and are a high risk for full orpartial closure in the near future due totheir present condition.

Another part of the bill includes a$750 million authorization request forthe federal aid highway program.While the authorization request mustbe for the full $750 million, theCommonwealth will be responsiblefor $135 million of that spending.

Also included in “An Act FinancingImprovements to Municipal Roadsand Bridges” are technical correctionsto previously approved pieces of legis-lation, including a change that wouldbring bonds issued for the railenhancement program in line withsimilar projects like the acceleratedbridge program by making themexempt from the statutory debt limit.
