Summary

[edit]
Description FHWA, Highways for LIFE: during the bridge closure, the approach structures were raised onto low-profile rollers and hydraulically pulled to the east with individual pumps and jacks at each bent. Operators used air horns and radios to keep in contact with each other, and each operator moved the bridge a predetermined distance each time. Care was taken to not pull the new approach spans past the final bearing locations because the jacks would have to be relocated to pull back in the opposite direction, resulting in the loss of valuable time within the closure milestone.
