A long-dead mode of transportation is coming back to life in several cities in Massachusetts.. Months of summer work have begun to repair vital rail bridges in the Fall River area, part of the 120-month South Coast Rail project that is restoring 52 mi. (83.6 km) of commuter rail service between Boston and the Massachusetts South Coast. The entire cost of the decade-long plan is estimated to be $210 million. “We are thrilled about the three Fall River bridges and the Wamsutta Bridge in New Bedford. These are solid investments that will provide immediate benefit to the expanding freight rail sector, along the same route as the future South Coast Rail commuter line,” said Jean Fox, project director of MassDOT. “From similar bridge replacements conducted in the past, we have seen that these improvements are transformational. They can change the complexion of an urban area quite remarkably.” Since service to this area stopped in 1959, Taunton, Fall River and New Bedford are the only major municipalities within 50 mi. (80.4 km) of Boston that do not have transit access to the state’s capital and other communities. When the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA) finishes the 10-year plan that is already through year two, South Coast Rail will reconnect this economically depressed region, spurring new jobs and a kind of vitality to the area that hasn’t been seen since its major textile factories and mills closed decades ago. The proposed South Coast Rail service will be an extension of the MBTA’s existing Stoughton commuter rail line to the new terminal stations in New Bedford and Fall River. The route will extend from Stoughton Station along an inac-
tive section of right-of-way from Stoughton to Taunton, then onto the active freight railroad corridor from Taunton to the terminus stations in Fall River and New Bedford. The project will include the reconstruction of existing Canton Center and Stoughton Stations and the addition of 10 new commuter rail stations and two overnight layover facilities. The new stations will be located in North Easton, Easton Village, Raynham Park, Taunton, Taunton Depot, King’s Highway, Whale’s Tooth, Freetown, Fall River Depot and Battleship Cove. A new overnight layover facility will be located in both New Bedford and Fall River. When it is done, a total of approximately 42,000 rail ties and thousands of spikes will be installed along the 14 mi. (22.5 km) of track leading to Fall River and 19 mi. (30.5 km) of track leading to New Bedford. “We know that these bridges will be true enhancements. All of the bridges are currently structurally deficient, so they would need work anyway. Full replacement will help the freight operator in the short term and pave the way for future commuter rail service,” said Fox. “For pedestrians and vehicular traffic, the removal of the center island on President Avenue will enhance safety and aesthetics, by removing a line-of-sight obstacle and replacing the 1900-era structure. Cardi Corp. crews work on rail over President Avenue in Fall River.
Railways Long Dead Rail networks popped up all over Massachusetts and became a popular way to commute and travel. The South Coast region was originally connected to Boston with rail service via the Fall River Branch, the Taunton Branch and see RAILS page 4

MassDOT Constructs Railroad Bridge Replacements RAILS from page 1
the Easton Branch railroads built in the mid1800s, ultimately operated by the Old Colony Railroad. The New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad leased the Old Colony Railroad system beginning in 1893 and was successful for many decades. In the early to mid-20th century, the United States experienced an automobile revolution and a societal shift toward autooriented urban planning. Interstate highways were booming. Private automobiles replaced commuter rail as the popular mode of transportation. As a result, the New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad encountered financial problems. While the Commonwealth of Massachusetts provided an emergency subsidy to continue service to the South Coast in 1958, it was not enough. Passenger service on the Old Colony line was abandoned in 1959, with the exception of the main line between Boston and Providence, R.I. The current one-year phase of the project is seeing railways shored up for the first time in 56 years. With the first year design phase complete, involving state discussions with communities from Stoughton to Fall River, tons of soil samples are being taken over many months to discern toxic content and other vital information. When the design phase is complete and the samples in hand, MassDOT will begin replacing four bridges — New Bedford’s Wamsutta Bridge, Fall River’s Golf Club Road,

New Rail Crossings Some of these bridges have inadequate vertical clearance over roadways, while others are in poor condition and have been out of service for decades. DOT crews — with workers from Cardi Corp. and other sub-contractors, have been removing and replacing these older bridges to support freight service while staging the area for commuter rail to Boston. Through summer and autumn, MassDOT, now under the supervision of the MBTA, is constructing grade crossing upgrades, railroad bridge replacements, track improvements and shoring up the bridge areas over major arteries like President Avenue in Fall River. The following $16 million phase of the construction project will upgrade five grade crossings (three in Freetown, one in Taunton and one in New Bedford), rebuild approximately 10,500 ft. (3,200 m) of track in Freetown and install approximately 6,000 ft. (1,828 m) of new track in New Bedford. The locations are: High Street, Elm Street and Copicut Road along the Fall River Secondary in Freetown; Dean Street in Taunton; and Nash Road in New Bedford. The project also will make signal improvements at the Dean Street/Arlington Street intersection in Taunton and the Nash Road/Church Street intersection in New Bedford. The grade crossings will be equipped with the latest safety warning technology and will accommodate future commuter rail service. The estimated travel time between New Bedford and Boston (South Station) is about 77 minutes. From Fall River, the trip is estimated to take around 75 minutes. This will be a boon for commuters who routinely take two hours to get to

President Avenue and Brownell Street bridges. “Brownell’s bridge replacement will be much more pleasing to the eye than the current structure, as well. Golf Club Road had to be closed several years ago because of its poor condition. The temporary access road installed just before the closure unfortunately provided easy access to trespassers,” said Fox of the ongoing design work. “Trash disposal and vandalism were becoming a significant issue in that area and along the right-of-way, which is not a public way. In fact, no one should be walking along the tracks or near the tracks at any time. Once this bridge is replaced, the temporary road will no longer be necessary, and access can then be safely restricted.”

Plans Move Forward on New England’s Largest Wind Farm By Alanna Durkin ASSOCIATED PRESS
Mountains said there has already been significant push back among some residents who are concerned about what impact the massive project will have on the area. “The consternation and anxiety has been excruciating, particularly for the people that live in the affected area,’’ he said. The 132-megawatt Kibby Wind project Katie Chapman near Eustis, which was completed by the EDP Renewables TransCacanda Corporation in 2010, is currently the largest wind power project in Maine and New England. But several large projects are under construction, including the Bingham Wind Project, which SunEdison began building in July. That 185megawatt project is expected to generate enough power for up to 65,000 homes. Katie Chapman A spokesman for DEP said the EDP Renewables department has 185 days to review the project before it will make a decision. Patrick Woodcock, director of the but many of the benefits of the project governor’s Energy Office, said his office would stay local, including $2 million for said he couldn’t comment on the proposal at energy efficiency programs for residents in this time. Aroostook County, Chapman said. (This story also can be found on Chris O’Neil, spokesman of anti-wind Construction Equipment Guide’s Web site at development group Friends of Maine’s www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)
“Wind is one of the energies that can really truly offer a stable electricity rate for 20 years.’’
AUGUSTA, Maine (AP) A Texas company is pushing forward with an effort to build a massive wind power project in Aroostook County that would be the largest of its kind in New England. EDP Renewables, which recently submitted its application to the Maine Department of Environmental Protection, needs to get the green light from the state before it can begin building the 250-megawatt wind project in northern Maine that could power roughly 70,000 homes. Republican Gov. Paul LePage has been skeptical of wind power development in the state, but Katie Chapman, project manager of the EDP Renewable’s Number Nine Wind Farm, said she’s confident that DEP will give the proposal a fair review. “On some things, we are aligned with the governor, particularly with respect to energy costs,’’ Chapman said. “Wind is one of the energies that can really truly offer a stable electricity rate for 20 years,’’ she said. Chapman said her company hopes to

begin construction on the up to 119-turbine project next year. If all goes according to plan, the project would begin operating in early 2017, she said. The Number Nine Wind Farm will sell its power to utilities companies in Connecticut

the city where parking also is at a premium. The 120-month timeline, which began in June 2014, held for two years of preliminary engineering and permitting, two-plus-years of final design, and five years of construction, with the timeline subject to change. The Mass. house and senate authorized $12.7 billion to finance a number of improvements to the Commonwealth’s transportation infrastructure system in 2014, including a $2.3 billion bill for South Coast Rail. The first year funding of $12 million is to secure data collection, preliminary design to support the environmental permitting process through the summer of 2015. Soil Samples In some areas, the soil borings collected reveal that additional structural support from footings, piers and other aids must be incorporated into the

construction design. The new rail route that has been selected is called the Stoughton (after the city) Electric Alternative. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers identified this route as the least “environmentally damaging practicable South Coast Rail alignment and mode.” The agencies made such determinations based on a comprehensive evaluation of multiple factors, including ridership, travel times, biodiversity, wetlands, land use, noise and vibration, water resources, as well as visual and socioeconomic impacts, which will include a new vital lifeline to three cities that desperately need a boost. An electrified system has been approved, which offers many economic and green benefits. According to the MBTA literatures, electric trains have several key advantages over diesel trains: Zero emission vehicles run more cleanly and efficiently, resulting in reduced corridor air pollution emissions; electric trains accelerate and decelerate more quickly, resulting in

better commute times; and they generally require less maintenance. Electric energy that powers the trains can be sourced from wind power and other green sources. When the project was announced, then-Gov. Deval L. Patrick said, “south Coast residents deserve the benefits of a reliable and convenient connection to Boston and points in between. This work is another step in a methodical, comprehensive process that will move South Coast Rail forward.” Patrick left office after eight years in January. The MBTA is working with new Gov. Charlie Baker on future improvements and South Coast Rail maintenance as the project will not be finished by the end of Baker’s first term. For more information, visit www.mass.gov/southcoastrail.

Materials Dumped Into Long Island Sound Spur Debate By Stephen Singer ASSOCIATED PRESS
HARTFORD, Conn. (AP) A long-simmering dispute over dumping dredged materials from rivers and harbors into Long Island Sound has flared up again with a new federal plan to govern disposal sites. Connecticut backs the disposal of materials in designated areas while New York state and environmental activists are calling for the reuse of sediments. Four sites in the Sound are used for disposal, with two set to close by April unless a management plan is approved, said Jean Brochi, a Long Island Sound project manager of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. Citizens Campaign for the Environment supports dredging and improved access to waterways, saying dredged material can be used to rebuild wetlands, restore beaches or
supplement cement. But some sediment is polluted with pesticides, heavy metals and toxic chemicals, said Adrienne Esposito, executive director. “Using Long Island Sound as a dumping ground is a lazy way out,'” she said. Silt, sediment and other materials flow with rivers —mostly in Connecticut —clogging waterways and harbors where they empty. The channels and harbors must be dredged periodically to remain open for navigation. The New York departments of State and Environmental Conservation told the Army Corps of Engineers in a July 10 letter that the Long Island Sound Dredged Material Management Plan “appears to be focused” on use of Long Island Sound under the current status quo as an open water waste disposal facility.” The goal was to reduce or eliminate the use of open water disposal, the
two agencies said. Brian Thompson, an official at the Connecticut Department of Energy and Environmental Protection, said areas where materials are dumped are capped by clean material. “Connecticut is comfortable and confident in the management of materials at open waters disposal sites,” said Thompson, director of the agency’s office of Long Island Sound programs. “We have many years of data demonstrating it’s been an effective management measure.” Long Island has more sand that can be reused for beaches than does Connecticut, officials here say. Federal officials are recommending “beneficial uses” of dredged material be considered, Brochi said, but cautions that is “easier said than done.” Joseph Salvatore, dredge coordinator of
Connecticut’s Department of Transportation, said the state has reused dredged material from the Connecticut River ferry at Rocky Hill to cap a landfill, and dredged material from Patchogue River in Westbrook and Clinton Harbor has been used to replenish areas of Hammonasset Beach State Park. And plans are in the works to do the same next year for 600,000 cu. yds. (458,732 cu m) of dredged material from the Housatonic River, he said. The state has financed more than $20 million in bond funding over five years for dredging, Salvatore said. Public hearings on the dredging plan are set for late August in Connecticut and Long Island.

South Coast Improvement Track Construction Begins on Completes Cedar Dell Reno Haven-Springfield Rail Line
South Coast Improvement Company (SCI), a design-build general contractor serving New England and the Mid-Atlantic states, recently completed a renovation project at The Residence at Cedar Dell, Dartmouth, Mass.
South Coast Improvement Company (SCI), a design-build general contractor serving New England and the Mid-Atlantic states, recently finished a restoration project at The Residence at Cedar Dell, an independent, assisted and memory care living home at 628 Old Westport Road in Dartmouth, Mass. The $700,000 renovation featured improvements to resident units, common areas (seating areas, library and gym), corridors, a new exterior walkway and a new elevator. The project also included apartment buildouts, fresh paint, new carpeting in multiple units, offices and common areas, and the installation of a number of other new amenities throughout the facilities (rails, cabinets, ceiling lights, handicap shower
benches, etc. “You always want a great finished product, but the real key to a project like this is to keep disruption to residents and the daily operations to a minimum. With this project, I feel pretty confident we succeed on both counts,” said Tom Quinlan, president of South Coast Improvement. Work began on the Residence at Cedar Dell on Nov. 1 and was completed on time and under budget. For more information, call 508/748-6545 or visit www.southcoastimprovement.com. (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s Web site at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)
HARTFORD, Conn. (AP) Construction of a second track for the expanded rail line from New Haven to Springfield, Mass., has begun, and commuters will be bused along the route for the next year. The project will boost north-south rail transportation from six daily round-trip trains to 17 a day south of Hartford and 12 north of Hartford. About $435 million is available, said John Bernick, assistant rail administrator of the Connecticut Department of Transportation. Of that amount, $191 million is from Washington, D.C., and the remainder is state funding, he said. The increased number of trains is intended not only to boost economic development in central Connecticut, but it also is part of a broader web of rail line expansions between Springfield and Boston and north to Vermont and Montreal. “It puts Hartford right in the middle of this great rail infrastructure,” Bernick said. “It’s huge. When you discuss it with businesses, their eyes really light up. It all starts right now with this critical track bed.” The rail line in Connecticut is currently split between single and double track. Funding would add double track and upgrade stations in Berlin, Hartford, Meriden and Wallingford, Bernick said.
The Connecticut portion of the project from North Haven to Windsor is expected to be completed by 2017. Democratic Gov. Dannel P. Malloy told U.S. Transportation Secretary Anthony Foxx in May that Amtrak, which runs trains along the route, has “impeded Connecticut’s ability to cost effectively manage” the project. He said it was “grossly over budget and significantly behind schedule.” The opening date had been moved from late 2016, and the cost increased to $615 million from $365 million, he said in a letter. Amtrak said in a statement that rail officials have a “different view of the circumstances” but share Malloy’s “desire to effectively advance the improvements” to the New Haven-Springfield corridor. Malloy’s proposal to revamp transportation, including rail, highway and Connecticut’s ports, dovetails with President Barack Obama’s efforts to increase funding for high-speed rail and intra-city rail transportation. The New England plan is to connect the region’s states with Canada and, using MetroNorth Railroad in the south, to New York City.
