The New Bridges The most critical new bridge labeled Bridge 9 will be a three-span, 1,036-ft. (315.77 m) -long arching concrete bridge over the West River built using balanced cantilever construction. Standing 100 ft. (30.5 m) above the river and scenic valley below, the 515-ft. (157 m) main span will form an open gateway anchored by curving, cathedral piers. It will feature 10-ft. (3 m) -wide shoulders and carry two lanes of traffic each direction, northbound and southbound on I-91. The bridge will include viewing platforms for pedestrians, hikers and visitors at the base of each pier. The piers will feature Vermont-inspired, stone-formed concrete that blends with the local environment. Because of its viewer- and environmentally-friendly design, the crossing has been dubbed “A Bridge to Nature.” Crews have nearly finished pier 1 on Bridge 9 and then will begin work on pier 2, Hoyne said. The new bridge simplifies the process of crossing the West River. “It replaces two long truss bridges and replaces it with one superstructure,” Hoyne said. Another new bridge, known as Bridge 8 will carry the northbound and southbound lanes of I-91 over Upper Dummerston Road using NEXT beams. NEXT beams are made of steel and are an alternative to concrete box beams for 30-ft. (9.1 m) and 90-ft. (27.4 m) spans. Consisting of a double-tee shape beam with a 13-in. (33 cm) wide tee leg, NEXT beams are considered a time- and money-saver in modern bridge construction. Current Construction Status of New Bridges Currently workers are casting segments of the bridge over West River with a machine called a form traveler. A segmental bridge is a concrete bridge built in short sections, one piece at a time, as opposed to traditional methods that build a bridge in very large sections. Abutment work at the bridge over Upper Dummerston Road is complete. Girder erection was taking place in early March. The old northbound bridge over the West River has been removed. Most of the work on the new bridges is being done by large cranes and the form traveler, Hoyne said. The new roadway alignment will continue through 2016. Project Challenges Forming and reinforcing curving cathedral piers is considered extremely complex. The effort extended the project several months past its original time frame. The project also was slowed by permitting delays and unexpected digging difficulties. Positive Impact of the I-91 Brattleboro Bridge Project “We are replacing two aging fracture-critical bridges,” Hoyne said. He pointed out that if the old bridges over the West River were to close because of a fracture, it would have a serious economic impact on the state. The bridge provides access from the south and is considered vital for bringing goods into the state. see BRATTLEBORO page 6

Harvard Kennedy School Plans Improvements to Campus Harvard Kennedy School (HKS) is moving forward with the planning and design of significant changes and additions to its campus to enhance its mission. These will create new spaces for teaching and learning, upgrade the central courtyard as a campus amenity, and improve campus cohesion and circulation with greater pedestrian connections to Harvard Square and the Charles River. The proposed project will result in the addition of 91,000 sq. ft. (8,454 sq m) of space that will include six new classrooms, a new kitchen and dining facility, offices and meeting spaces, a new student lounge and study space, more collaboration and active learning spaces as well as a redesigned central courtyard. The project will also address key physical shortcomings in the existing HKS campus, including conflicts in vehicular and pedestrian circulation and compro-

mised off-street loading facilities. The project includes infill construction at the perimeter of the campus, maintaining the open landscaped courtyard at its center. New construction will connect the Kennedy School’s four existing buildings with three additions serving as links. As part of the project, the existing central courtyard will be raised to generally align with the grade level of adjacent streets at key pedestrian access points (at Eliot Street beneath the proposed Gateway Building and on the west side at the JFK Park pedestrian connector). The raised courtyard will produce a more functional central campus green space while creating a new lower level that contains a below-grade loading facility, additional program space and storm water retention tanks. Subject to regulatory and permit approvals, construction, beginning with site preparation, is tentatively scheduled to begin in April. The project is expected to be comThe proposed project will result in the plete in late 2017 with an official opening addition of 91,000 sq. ft.

Replacing Aging Bridges Key to Economic Stability in Vt. BRATTLEBORO from page 4

Most of the work on the new bridges is being done by large cranes and the form traveler.

In addition, the new bridge over the West River will be nature/enthusiast-oriented. Its viewing platforms overlook the West River and mountainous valley below. True to its Bridge to Nature theme, piers, viewing platforms and the railings will be complementary of the natural landscape. A Visual Quality Advisory Team consisting of Vermont Agency of Transportation, local aesthetic committee and FIGG Bridge Engineers Inc. representatives selected eco-friendly concrete stain colors, platform railing designs and other aesthetic details.

The piers will feature Vermont-inspired, stone-formed concrete that blends with the local environment.

Community Impacts Including Ramp Closures To reduce congestion, traffic personnel closed both Exit 3 on ramps from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Sunday, March 6 and Sunday, March 13. Plans are to close the Exit 3 on ramps on Sunday afternoons through the end of the ski season. The speed limit on Route 30 in the work zone has been reduced to 40 mi. (64.4 km) per hour. The route may be reduced to a single lane intermittently with flaggers regulat-

ing traffic within the work zone. The West River Trail is open. But construction vehicles cross the trail at certain spots, so extreme caution is advised at those locations. Trail talks will be provided for visitors in the spring. (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s Web site at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.) CEG

Baker, Polito Announce Workforce Skills Capital Grants Gov. Charlie Baker and Lt. Gov. Karyn Polito announced $9.3 million in workforce skills equipment grants to 35 high schools, community colleges and vocational training providers across the Commonwealth for vocational-technical education and training equipment purchases that connect Massachusetts students and residents to economic opportunities in high-demand industries. “Workforce skills education and training plays an enormous role in economic and personal development by helping residents acquire the skills they need to connect with promising careers,” said Gov. Baker. “These vocational-technical education equipment grants will help build stronger communities and a more competitive business environment that ensures more residents have the skills they need to succeed in and support the Commonwealth’s economic future.” “These workforce development grants will build bridges between residents seeking careers to build a future on, and the employers who need a skilled workforce to grow the state’s economy,” said Lt. Governor Polito. “Today, too many good-paying jobs are going unfilled, because employers are struggling to find skilled employees. This investment in training equipment will enable high schools and community colleges across the Commonwealth to equip students with the skills they need to secure a bright future.” The Workforce Skills Capital Grant Program is a new initiative of the Governor’s Workforce Skills Cabinet, which seeks to align education, workforce and economic development strategies across the state. Gov. Baker tapped Labor and Workforce Development Secretary Ronald Walker II, Education Secretary James Peyser and Housing and Economic Development Secretary Jay Ash to work together to develop policies to improve economic and job training opportunities for residents of the Commonwealth. As part of the Workforce Skills Cabinet’s efforts to align resources to better meet common goals, the Workforce Skills Cabinet consolidated two separate capital grant programs — the former Manufacturing Training Equipment grants (administered by the Executive Office of Housing and Economic Development) and the former Vocational Opportunity Challenge grants (administered by the Executive Office for Administration and Finance) — into one unified, integrated and expanded workforce development capital grant program. The inaugural round of the Workforce Skills Capital Grant program received 68 applications, requesting a total of $18 million in funding. “We are leveraging our resources to take the public dollars that are available and funneling them into places that can provide the skills and job training that residents need for the jobs that are available,” said Secretary Walker. “The goal is to have all our

resources integrated around meeting the talent needs in a particular region.” “These grants will immediately transform the quality of vocational programs and cutting edge technological opportunities,” said Secretary Peyser. “They will also enable deeper partnerships between vocational schools, community colleges, and employers.” “A competitive economy demands a competitive, highly skilled workforce,” said Secretary Ash. “Through the Workforce Skills Cabinet’s coordinated efforts to close the skills gap, we are equipping residents with the skills needed to fill the jobs of today, and tomorrow, and setting the stage for future economic growth.” Consistent with the Baker-Polito Administration’s support for expanded workforce development opportunities, the Governor’s recently filed economic development legislation requests an additional $75 million in capital authorization for additional training equipment grants that strengthen workforce skills, and create strong employment pipelines. 2016 Workforce Skills Capital Grant Program Winners • Assabet Valley Regional Technical High School, Marlborough - $213,040 Assabet Valley Regional Technical High School will construct a fully computerized hydroponic greenhouse to support vocational programming in the biotechnology and culinary fields, including research, food production, farm-to-table sustainability, and nutritional processes. • Bay Path Regional Vocational Technical High School, Charlton $295,500 Bay Path’s machine tool modernization project will provide vocational-technical students and adult learners in southern Worcester County with modern advanced manufacturing machinery and robotics equipment. • Berkshire Community College, Pittsfield - $465,119 Berkshire Community College will upgrade and modernize its manufacturing and engineering program, utilizing new hydraulics, pneumatics, electrical controls, materials testing, CNC and 3D printing equipment to train students and adult learners for careers in advanced manufacturing, engineering, and biotechnology. • Blackstone Valley Vocational Regional School District, Upton $407,517 Blackstone Valley’s cluster modernization project will provide state-of-the-art equipment for students learning manufacturing technology, automotive technology, construction technology, and medical billing and coding. • BMC Durfee High School, Fall River - $110,820 The Fall River Public Schools will create

NORTHUMBERLAND, N.H. (AP) A North Country town that’s been struggling since its paper mill closed in 2007 and put several hundred people out of work has taken a step toward bringing back jobs. Northumberland voters voted to borrow up to $400,000 to put in water and sewage lines to the 137-acre property formerly the site of Wausau Paper Mill in the village of Groveton. However, the funding is dependent on a federal grant of about $800,000. If the grant is not received, the money will not be raised. Local and state officials have been trying to bring businesses to the area for years in an impoverished region that’s lost about 3,000 jobs in the last decade due to the closing of manufacturers, including a pulp mill in Berlin, an Ethan Allen furniture plant across the state line in Vermont and the Balsams resort hotel. A North Country regional specialist of the state’s Division of Resources and Economic Development believes the town has a good chance of getting the grant from the U.S. Economic

Development Administration. “I think because the area is distressed as much as it is, those are the kind of areas that they like to obviously assist any way they can,’’ said Beno Lamontagne, North Country industrial agent. At the peak of the industry in the 1920s, there was a sawmill and at least five paper mills in the North Country. One of the paper mills shut down in 1930, and the industry had been on the decline since. New Hampshire Public Radio reported the question at the town meeting was whether it was smart to take on $400,000 in debt without a guarantee that it would mean more jobs. “If you people vote no today you are going to throw away a tremendous chance to save this town,’’ said Ken Strong, who spoke in favor of the town taking a chance. Most buildings on the property have been demolished. Three are left, including two former warehouses and Wausau’s former office. There is natural gas at the site, and the county has economic incentives for new construc-

tion and job creation. Several businesses have looked at the property in recent years, including an energy development company that considered building a liquefied gas plant, but that proposal fell through. Economic development officials have promoted North Country relocation and expansion to businesses for years, with an emphasis on Canada. Groveton is about a half-hour from the border. “Yes, it’s certainly far out of the way, and we know that more than three-quarters of the new companies that come to our state come from Massachusetts,’’ Lamontagne said, and most of them don’t go that far north. “If we’re going to turn the economy around in northern Carroll, northern Grafton and all of Coos County, it’s probably going to come from our largest trading partner, our friends north of the border,’’ he said.

South Coast Improvement Company (SCI), a design-build general contractor serving New England and the Mid-Atlantic states, recently began a renovation project at Brightview Country Club Heights, an independent and assisted living facility located at 3 Rehabilitation Way in Woburn, Mass. The project, which began in January, features renovation of first floor common areas, including the staff lounge, office space, arts and crafts room, billiards room and multifunction room. Work also will include a new kitchen area with all new millwork, new plumbing in the salon and new flooring throughout. South Coast Improvement Company began these renovations in January and will complete work in May. The total renovation project will cost approximately $700,000. “We have done four major renovations at Country Club Heights and a total of 17 for Brightview Senior Living properties. While some of that has to do with the quality of our work, I’m convinced that most of it has to do with how easy we are to work with,” said Tom Quinlan, president of South Coast Improvement Company. “By developing a process and through coordination with staff, we can take on renovation projects like these with minimal impact on residents and dayto-day activities.” Country Club Heights is owned by Brightview Senior Living, which offers 35 communities in eight states — Connecticut,

Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island and Virginia. The communities include Independent Living, Assisted Living, Personal Care and Dementia Care options. Based in Marion, Mass., and with an office in Reading, Pa., South Coast Improvement Co is a recognized leader in providing building and renovation services to a client base of senior living, healthcare, institutional and retail clients. About South Coast Improvement Company South Coast Improvement offers a range of design, construction and management services across a variety of sectors — interiors as well as exteriors — including office buildings, health care facilities, educational institutions, commercial properties, assisted living facilities and residential communities.
