On the Job: First Extradosed Bridge in United States
Walsh Construction Co. and PCL Civil Constructors, in a joint venture partnership, currently are building the Q-B Pearl Harbor Memorial Bridge. The Connecticut Department of Transportation awarded the $417 million project last year. The program is a federally-funded mega program called the I-95 New Haven Harbor Crossing Corridor Improvement Program. The Pearl Harbor Memorial Bridge, a 7.5-mile stretch of highway that spans the Quinnipiac River, broke ground in December 2009 with an expected completion date of mid-2015.
