My boss and I figured out how we were going to do this by boring 2 48" steel casing underneath the freeway to accommodate the 12-4" PVC conduits that would take all of our new communications lines. Anyway this bridge is one of the most amazing construction projects that I've been involved with. It's pretty amazing to me all of the engineering that has gone into this project. Not only by UDOT but all the other utility companies that had to work with UDOT to remove their facilities and relocate them. Rocky Mountain Power, Questar Gas, Qwest communications and other utility companies were involved. This is a pretty amazing engineering feet and I feel privileged that I was involved with this project.
Keep up the good work guys!
Kudos to the regular folks gutsy enough to use innovation and who continue to make this project happen... Shame on those (at least one who was quoted in the article) who will surely take their credit!
Thanks to "Works of Art" for giving credit where it is due. I read many of the news articles and Ralph L. Wadsworth was never mentioned. Guess they got a little payback with the huge banners that were on the old and new bridges as they moved down the road!!!
