Bridge Replacement over West Branch of Mahoning River

LJB designed the replacement of this existing single-span slab bridge and installation of new abutments. The replacement bridge is a new 60-foot single-span prestressed concrete box beam bridge with a composite concrete deck and reinforced concrete integral abutments on pile foundations placed behind the existing ones. All work was above the ordinary high-water mark for the stream, there were two right-of-way takes, and utility relocations were required. Associated approach roadway work included pavement replacement of approximately 25 feet at each end of the bridge and guardrail upgrades.
