SR 62 Abutment under construction.  This project had an MSE wall per PADOT plans but
a redesign was  proposed and accepted for a conventional abutment and wing walls on
Piles.
This is a Design/Build project for the full replacement of a structurally deficient single
span reinforced concrete T Beam Bridge carrying State Route 0040 over Buffalo Creek.
The new structure is anticipated to be constructed on the existing horizontal alignment
with only minor adjustments to the vertical alignment (0.19 acres disturbance). Because
the structure is located directly adjacent to historic S Bridge care will need to occur in
demolition plus new bridge will include features such as stained concrete, weather guide
rail and type 10 M barrier with weathered steel/powdered type finish. Traffic will be
maintained using half width construction and controlled with a temporary traffic signal.
The project involves the replacement of the existing bridge carrying T-970 (Climax
Road) over Redbank Creek located in Mahoning Township, Armstrong County and
Porter Township, Clarion County, Pennsylvania.  The existing riveted steel through
truss bridge will be replaced with a two span steel I-beam bridge.  T-970 is classified as
a Rural Local Roadway; therefore, Rural Local Road criteria were used to establish the
design elements for the bridge replacement and approach roadway reconstruction.
