Fulton Avenue Bridge and South Street Design Build Bridge Replacement

Teaming with ECCO III, McLaren’s Bridge, Highway + Rail group has been awarded the MTA Construction & Development Contract (68632) Design-Build Services for the Replacement of Fulton Avenue and South Street Bridge. The objective of this project is to replace both Fulton Avenue Bridge and South Street Bridge with new modern structures to improve traffic, pedestrian circulation, and access to Metro-North Railroad’s Mount Vernon East Station, adjacent to Fulton Avenue.

As the Design-Builder, our team will provide planning, design, and engineering services.

Fulton Avenue Bridge

Located over the Metro-North train tracks in downtown Mount Vernon, NY the 130-year-old bridges have aged past repair. Safety reports conducted by the Department of Transportation had previously uncovered serious issues compromising Fulton Avenue Bridge’s structural integrity. This resulted in a forced closure to vehicular traffic in 2022.

As our bridge team works on the design of a modern replacement bridge, our construction engineers, provided crucial support services for the methodical removal of the original structure, employing innovative techniques such as the self-propelled modular transporter (SPMT) to slide the bridge span 150 feet from its current location. This intricate maneuver allows for the safe disassembly and demolition of the aging structure.
