The replacement of the Bow-Concord, N.H., Bridge on Interstate 93 broke ground on Oct. 13, 2011. Now midphase, the $14.7 million project is under the control of general contractor R.S. Audley Inc., in Bow, N.H. Audley focuses on roads, bridges, utilities, large site work and unique structural projects throughout northern New England, with many projects in Maine and Vermont. This family-owned company has become one of the state’s largest, most successful heavy contractors. The company has completed, according to its Web site, more than $800 million worth of bonded projects in its history. NHDOT, bridge owners, are overseeing the replacement of the I-93 northbound and southbound red-listed bridges over Interstate 89 and the Turkey River, some smaller repairs to the Collector Distributor Road Bridge and resurfacing nearly 1,650 ft. (502.9 m) of I-93 and reconstructing 4,050 ft. (1,234.4 m) of highway.
“The general contractor, R.S. Audley, based out of Bow, is a very well-known contractor in the state and is currently working on multiple NHDOT projects,” said Kyle Zorawowicz, CE II, and field support. Audley’s current project, the Bow-Concord Bridge, is one of the two densely traveled north-south highways in the state. The highway lies about 1,100 ft. (335.3 m) south of the Grandview Road overpass. It extends northward about 1.1 mi. (1.8 km), to just south of Exit 12N on the Interstate. According to Zorawowicz, steel beams on the southbound bridge lanes have just been put into place. Many sub-contractors have worked on this project, but R.S. Audley does its own site and bridge work. Continental Paving, Inc. is another New Hampshire based general contractor and has been contracted by Audley to perform all of the paving on the project. Delucca Fence & Guardrail, based in Massachusetts, has been contracted to install the entire new guardrail on the project. H. B. Fleming, based in Maine, has been contracted to install all support of excavation, and pile driving for each see BOW page 4

About 50 percent complete, the next phase includes constructing a traffic phasing crossover from southbound to northbound, median barrier and drainage work and complete construction and demolition of the northbound bridge.
Structural steel came from Casco Bay Steel Structures Inc., based in Maine. All of the reinforcing steel came from Barker Steel, based in New Hampshire. According to Zorawowicz, the existing bridges were constructed in the 1960s. The bridges have been high ranking red list bridges in the state for several years and have been in dire need of replacement. The first phase of the new I-93 southbound bridge is complete and traffic has resumed. The old southbound bridge has been demolished. Traffic is still running on the existing northbound bridge, but is scheduled to shift to the second phase of the new southbound bridge sometime in late summer, according to Zorawowicz. Traffic will be travelling north and south, separated by an anchored jersey barrier, on the new I-93 southbound bridge while the existing northbound bridge is demolished and the new northbound bridge is constructed. About 50 percent complete, the next phase includes constructing a traffic phasing crossover from southbound to northbound, median barrier and drainage work and complete construction and demolition of the northbound bridge. In addition, patching concrete scaling on the collector-distributor bridge that sends traffic northbound on Interstate 89 and takes traffic from I-89 southbound to I-93 southbound will be necessary. “The existing bridges are of high-priority on the New Hampshire red-listed bridges list and have significant concrete scaling where there are multiple locations with exposed rebar on the piers and pier caps,” said Zorawowicz. “There were nets installed underneath the existing decks to catch any falling chips of concrete.” The old southbound bridge carried only two lanes of traffic; the new bridge will carry three lanes.

Northbound Bridge Will Provide Space for NASCAR BOW from page 4
bridges were both 5-span bridges. The two new bridges will be two-span bridges, and provide a cleaner look, according to Zorawowicz. There are approximately 31,000 cars that travel on both north and southbound bridges daily. This number does not include the traffic that diverts off from I-93 south to I-89 northbound and from I-93 northbound to I89 southbound. The new northbound bridge will carry two lanes of traffic, but will be constructed with an extra-large 24 ft. (7.3 m) shoulder for possible future expansion. The extra-large shoulder will provide another lane for the traffic shifts performed during the two weeks NASCAR races in Loudon, according to Zorawowicz. “One of the biggest sources of state revenue we have is the NASCAR races each summer in Loudon,” said Zorawowicz. “The two lanes up to Loudon get tight. Going north is easier as the fans usually go up to stay a week earlier, before the races. But when the races are over, southbound is much tougher. We currently have portable barriers and push the southbound traffic into the northbound, leaving a single lane northbound and multiple lanes southbound and it
is still tight. We want very much to accommodate the traveling public without delaying them for hours and hours.” NHDOT is making strides on local highways. Besides Bow-Concord, there is the Hooksett Toll Plaza project, a $22.9 million project with an anticipated completion of early October 2013. This project consists of converting the Interstate 93 mainline cash and EZPass Toll Plaza in the town of Hooksett to an open road tolling facility. The project includes the widening and rehabilitation of the existing toll plaza, roadway widening and reconstruction and bridge rehabilitation. Another major project is the widening of the Seabrook, N.H., road with an estimated cost of $6.3 million with a completion date of June 2014. This project will widen N.H. 107 from the westerly limits of the Interstate 95 on and off ramps east to the intersection with U.S. 1 to accommodate the addition of two lanes. The N.H. 107 Bridge over I-95 will be widened 29 ft. (8.8 m) on the south side. Curbing, guardrail and fencing will be replaced on the north side. The existing deck will be rehabilitated using full and partial depth deck repairs and include the placement of new pavement and membrane. The current NHDOT project Bow-
Concord has required an impressive amount of materials. Both northbound and southbound bridges will need 1.2 million lbs. (544,310.8 kg) of structural steel set on the project. Half of this amount was lifted into place in May and June. The project total for concrete will be about 2,700 cu. yds. (2,064.3 cu m) and 1,000 cu. yds. (764.6 cu m) of that will be placed for solely the deck and the remaining 1700 cu. yds. (1,299.7 cu m) will and has been placed in the abutments, approach slabs, drilled shafts, piers, and pier caps according to Zorawowicz. There is 24,435 sq. ft. (2,270 sq m) of pre-stressed concrete bridge deck panels scheduled to be installed on the project and 26,000 tons (23,586.8 t) of asphalt to be paved on the project. “We are currently on Phase Two of the bridge construction,” he said. “The northbound bridge has to come down now. We are currently building the second half of the southbound bridge. We left the deck rebar sticking out in order to do a closure pour. There is a big gap currently, but we will be forming the new bridge decks in Phase Two and tying in both bridges.” Bow Brook had to be temporarily diverted in order to perform repairs and extend the 6 ft. (1.8 m) culvert underneath Interstate 93.
Crews constructed a new stone-lined ditch for Bow Brook according to Zorawowicz. Bow Brook is now a new stream bed approximately 20 ft. (6 m) west of its original configuration. “We even installed a custom babbling brook at the inlet with some handy excavator work and we also had New Hampshire Fish & Game come out on site to direct the installation of boulders in the stream line for trout and other fish to possibly live and lay eggs,” said Zorawowicz. Years of meeting local officials in both Bow and Concord, public planning sessions, presentations, designs, bids and countless hours of public affirmations had to be performed before a single shovel went into the earth in October 2011. Zorawowicz had great praise for the area, the officials and those who have to drive through it. “I would like to thank the travelling public for bearing with all of the construction delays pertinent to the project,” said Zorawowicz. “I know it can be a pain to travel through on some days but it will ultimately benefit everyone in the end.” (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s Web site at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)

Gov. Patrick Vetoes Transportation Bill DISPLAY ADS/ CLASSIFIEDS
BOSTON (AP) Gov. Deval Patrick on July 19 kept his promise to veto a massive transportation financing bill, saying it wasn’t good enough after lawmakers rejected his demand to include a plan for offsetting a potential loss of turnpike tolls. Patrick said he was acting with “mixed emotions” because the bill included many positive elements. Legislative leaders in the House and the Senate have expressed confidence they have sufficient votes to override the veto. The bill, which calls for $500 million in new taxes, seeks to pump billions of dollars into the state’s transportation network over the next decade, allowing the state to modernize its aging infrastructure and jumpstart stalled projects including the expansion of commuter rail to the South Coast. The legislation would end the practice of borrowing to pay salaries of state transportation workers and close the MBTA’s $115 million deficit, heading off another round of fare increases or service reductions. Patrick said in a statement the bill enables state leaders to reinvest in the
transportation network after decades of neglect, provides short-term resources to deal with pressing needs and will stimulate many jobs. “But,” he added, “this bill is not good enough.” The bill’s key flaw, he said, is that it doesn’t address the problem of how to replace lost revenue if tolls west of Interstate 95 come down as scheduled in 2017. While some lawmakers are of the belief the tolls will not come down, the governor criticized the Legislature for choosing to deal with the question later. “I believe this is an issue to be dealt with now, not put off to another day,” he said. Patrick’s amendment would have allowed for an automatic increase in the state’s gas tax if the western tolls come down. The House on July 17 voted 121-31 to send the bill back to the governor without the change, and the Senate did the same on July 18 by a 29-9 margin. Those margins, if they held up, would be above the two-thirds threshold needed to override the veto. House Speaker Robert DeLeo said the House would take up the veto soon
and called the version approved by the Legislature a “carefully balanced package.” Massachusetts Secretary of Transportation Richard Davey said if the current bill became law over the veto the administration would make the best of it while pushing for further discussion of transportation. Sen. Marc Pacheco, who voted against the bill, said it would not assure adequate funding for South Coast rail, a project many view as critical to the southeastern Massachusetts economy. Davey said it was too early to say if the project could go forward under the current bill but added it remained one of the governor’s top transportation priorities. The bill includes a 3 cent-per-gallon increase in the gasoline tax and would index future increases in the tax to inflation. It also raises the cigarette tax by $1 per pack and imposes the state sales tax on computer software and services.

MassDOT Announces Complete Callahan Tunnel Rehabilitation The Massachusetts Department of Transportation (MassDOT) announced plans to perform a complete rehabilitation of the Callahan Tunnel, which carries traffic from Boston’s North End to Logan International Airport and Route 1A in East Boston. The project will require a complete closure of the tunnel for approximately three months beginning in January 2014. The $34.9 million project includes rehabilitation of the 52-year old tunnel’s deck, curb line, gutters and replacement of the tunnel’s wall panels. The original deteriorated wall panels were removed in December 2012 as a safety measure due to significant corrosion to the panel wall anchor system. “The Callahan has served motorists well since the day it opened in 1961 and was paired with the Sumner tunnel,” said MassDOT Highway Administrator Frank DePaola. “However, every aspect of the tunnel is in fair to poor condition, and the time has come to put the Callahan in shape to last another 50 years.” The proposed work schedule includes a full tunnel closure with detours in place and posted for approximately three months beginning in January 2014, followed by an additional four to five months of work requiring overnight closures between 11 p.m. and 5 a.m. The complete closure of the tunnel in the early months of 2014 will reduce the overall duration of the project, provide enhanced
public safety by minimizing changes to traffic flow, and better coordinate with other local projects including Tobin Bridge work, which is scheduled to end for 2013 in November and resume in spring 2014. Six-Month Look Back at the Callahan Tunnel • December 21, 2012 — A single wall panel comes down during evening rush hour — no injuries to motorists, no damage to vehicles, no structural concerns. Three additional panels are removed as a precaution that evening. • Sunday, December 23, 2012 — MassDOT conducts an overnight pull-test of all 2800 panels inside the Callahan Tunnel, removing approximately 120 panels due to either advanced corrosion or as a precaution. • January 2013 — Plans were made and carried out in the month of January to remove all the panels from the Callahan resulting in dim conditions but no structural issues. This plan was carried out to assure safety and reduce the man hours that would be required to perform regular pull-tests inside the Callahan. The public is informed that plans for a new Callahan wall panel system would be included in the rehabilitation of the tunnel beginning in January 2014.

House Rules Committee Blocks Newtown School Amendment HARTFORD, Conn. (AP) U.S. Rep. Elizabeth Esty said she’s disappointed the House Rules Committee blocked her amendment that would make construction of a new Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown eligible for federal funds. The Democrat said in a statement that she’s “going to keep fighting to try and bring relief to Newtown and every community that has experienced unimaginable tragedy” and allow them to apply for federal funds to help cover construction costs. Esty had asked the committee to allow
an up or down vote on her amendment to the Student Success Act. However, the request was denied. The amendment was co-sponsored by Connecticut’s four other U.S. representatives. The 5th District congresswoman also has proposed federal incentives for defense contractors that make donations to help build a new Sandy Hook.

Bay State Must Pay for Most Big Dig Tunnel Leaks, Repairs BOSTON (AP) State transportation officials said the Big Dig tunnels will continue to have leaks and it may be largely up to the state to pay for fixing them in the future. Secretary of Transportation Richard Davey said that the tunnels were not designed to be completely leak proof and not all leaks can be pinned on design flaws. But he said the state will seek to tap a Big Dig trust fund whenever it believes engineering or design problems were responsible.
The Boston Herald reported that the state is on pace to spend $2.5 million plugging leaks this year. The federal government has said the trust fund cannot be tapped for routine maintenance on the tunnels. The trust fund was created in 2008 from a settlement with Big Dig contractors over allegations of shoddy construction.

New N.H. Historical Markers Commemorate Bypass, Dam PORTSMOUTH, N.H. (AP) Two new historical highway markers in New Hampshire commemorate the U.S. Route 1 Bypass in Portsmouth and the site of the Homestead Woolen Mills Dam in West Swanzey. The Route 1 Bypass marker is next to the Portsmouth Traffic Circle. It says the bypass was part of a New Deal project in 1940 to move U.S. Route 1 traffic away from the congested city streets. The bypass created a second Piscataqua River crossing into Maine via the Sarah Mildred Long Bridge. “Today, the U.S. Route 1 Bypass is one of the oldest signed bypasses in the country’s numbered route system,” the marker says. The Homestead Woolen Mills Dam marker is near the West Swanzey Bridge on Route 10. The dam on the Ashuelot River was built in the 1850s to power woolen and woodenware mills. It was later used only for water
controls after the 1920s until it was removed in 2010. Any municipality, organization or individual wishing to propose a historical highway marker to commemorate significant New Hampshire places, persons or events must submit a petition of support signed by at least 20 New Hampshire citizens. They must also draft the text of the marker and provide footnotes and copies of supporting documentation, as well as a suggested location for marker placement. The historical marker program is jointly managed by the state Division of Historical Resources and the Department of Transportation.
