Infrastructure company Granite has secured an approximately $25m contract from the City of Everett for the replacement of the Edgewater Creek Bridge in the US.
The project entails removing the original 1946-built bridge and constructing a new one spanning the Edgewater Creek Basin.
The site is located seven miles from Granite’s regional office.
Engineering complexities are noted to arise from the steep and unstable ravine soils, necessitating the construction of a trestle for improved access during construction.
Granite’s Smith Island Facility will contribute 1,610 tons (t) of hot mix asphalt (HMA) while Granite’s Falls Aggregate Plant will supply 4,685t of aggregates for the project.
Granite Regional Operations vice-president Mike Stein said: “This is an important structure for the City of Everett because of how it connects the community and the fact that it’s seismically vulnerable.
