Wallkill River Bridge Rehabilitation Design

A 2004 inspection of the bridge revealed a wide longitudinal crack on the underside of the bridge, a 24” sinkhole at the top of the deck, a clogged drainage system, severe scaling and spalling, and rotted track ties. McLaren has developed bridge rehabilitation designs based on the findings of this inspection as well of our own cursory inspection of the bridge that determined whether there were other significant conditions previously undiscovered. Various concrete repairs were designed, including repair or replacement of tile drains; removal of delaminated concrete; and repair of the longitudinal cracks. Waterproofing remedies were also developed.
