About

Image of bridge end panels. Significant erosion at these bridges requires repairs. We will replace bridge approach slabs that are in poor condition and have failed connections. (See photo to the right.)

Slope reinforcements under bridges are undermined, collapsing and soil is eroding onto the roadway under the structures due to leaking joints. We will repair or replace these damaged slopes. (See photos below.)

Repairs will be made to the eastbound and westbound interstate bridges at both locations.
