The Delaware Department of Transportation and Skanska USA Civil Southeast, Inc. (Skanska) invites the public to attend an outdoor "open house" style public workshop and participate in a construction site tour at the Indian River Inlet Bridge on Saturday, April 24, 2010 from 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. The workshop will consist of 12 information stations where the public can receive specific details about various aspects of the bridge construction. Information will be available about the design-build process, pile drivings and use of concrete with visual examples, the pylon forms including reinforced steel, the falsework structure, the stay cable erection system, the traveler, the approach spans of the bridge, and the final features of the bridge and their functionality. Many of these information stations will include visual highlights of the different elements of bridge construction. In the event of inclement weather, any decision to cancel the event will be posted at www.irib.deldot.gov 24 hours prior to the event.
A highlight of the event is the guided and narrated site tour the public is invited to take of the construction site. Representatives from the University of Delaware will be onsite to discuss the monitoring capabilities of the new bridge. Information about the roadway approaches and park improvement contracts will also be available. Several bridge designers, engineers and specialists will be on hand to discuss the bridge's construction.
The public is invited to attend any time between 1:00 p.m. and 4:00 p.m., and there will be an opportunity to provide written comment on the construction to date. However, there will be no formal presentations. |
