Speed, economy, and minimal disruptions are key ingredients for first vehicular concrete segmental bridge built in Keystone State.

Officials at the Pennsylvania Turnpike are finishing the state’s first vehicular segmental concrete bridge, to be opened in May. The mile-long structure provided a variety of benefits, including speed of erection and a construction approach that provided little disruption to the tight site. The design has worked so well that more such projects are planned along the turnpike.
