The contracts proactively address aging infrastructure to
support transportation safety throughout the state.
DAYTON,
Ohio, Aug. 15, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The
Ohio Department of Transportation has hired Woolpert for two
separate engineering contracts to support bridge maintenance,
repair, and replacement projects throughout the state.
"ODOT is committed to ensuring that
Ohio's infrastructure is safe,
maintained, and well-positioned for the future, and these contracts
will help support that mission."
The first contract supports ODOT District 9's bridge replacement
projects on State Route 772 in a rural area of Huntington Township in Ross County and State Route 138 near
Clarksburg, Ohio. Woolpert will
provide hydrology and hydraulics analyses, bridge structure type
studies, conceptual maintenance of traffic (MOT) planning, and
floodplain notification services.
Under the second contract, Woolpert will provide field condition
surveys, testing, MOT planning, and condition evaluation reports
for District 12 to support maintenance repairs on 11 bridges along
U.S. Route 422 in Cuyahoga and
Geauga counties.
Woolpert Bridge Engineer and Project Manager Tom Less said these projects are proactive to
prevent aging bridges from reaching a hazardous state.
"ODOT is committed to ensuring that Ohio's infrastructure is safe, maintained, and
well-positioned for the future, and these contracts will help
support that mission," Less said. "While Woolpert has expanded its
presence and services throughout the U.S. and world, we are always
incredibly proud to continue our support for such a long-term,
valued client and state that many of us here at Woolpert call
home."
The contracts are underway.
