MBTA Reconstruction of Ashmont Red Line

Project Details

Project Value: $5M

This replacement of the Clayton Street Bridge, was the first Accelerated Bridge Construction project to replace a bridge which carries a Massachusetts subway line. The work under this Contract consisted of removal of the existing bridge superstructure and piers, modifications to existing abutments, and construction of the new superstructure within a 56-hour timeframe. Barletta also retrofitted the existing abutments with tiebacks and micropiles, and reconstructed the roadway and sidewalks at the bridge site to increase the vertical clearance and improve pedestrian access with the elimination of existing steel bents located along the curb line.
