Traffic moves smoothly along I-295 over the new bridge Traffic and pedestrians travel on Veranda St beneath the new bridge Top down view provides a look at the vegetation planted along the roadway The west side of the bridge seen with native plants to add screening and highway buffer for the neighborhood The Veranda Plan project site, with the City of Portland in the background Pedestrians and bicyclists can make use of the new bike lanes and sidewalks East side of the project showing the open green space in the foreground created by the revised roadway configuration Traffic flows freely both directions by 7AM Final preparations are made to open the road. Paving started Sunday. Prefab concrete slabs are moved into position. Work continues on the approach to the bridges as well. As the southbound bridge deck is lowered, preparations continue for the northbound deck. Precise surveying is vital to ensure everything fits properly. The southbound bridge deck moves into place. A Cianbro employee recieves a bridge support. Both bridge decks are prepped for the move. The abutments are inspected and prepared for the new bridge decks. Preparations are made for the bridge slide. A MaineDOT employee and a Shaw Brothers employee discuss progress. Old bridge beams sit discarded on the job site. Saturday morning the bridge beams are removed. Rebar and concrete are steadily removed. The sun sets as crews work to clear the old bridge away. A line of hoe rams begins demolition on the old brige. The first demolition crew prepares for the Friday night kickoff. Each wheel supports around 8,300 pounds of the 800,000 pound bridge span. The SPMT operator holds the controls just after finishing a move. Proper tension is vital to ensure safety and stability. A Mammoet employee looks on as the tension is checked on chains securing the bridge span to the transporters. Cianbro employees raise a crane while the northbound bridge span is secured to SPMTs in the background. The northbound bridge span raised up on self-propelled modular transporters (SPMTs) in preparation for its first move.
