ASHE & ASCE Members:
This is a follow-up to the Technical Session held on March 21, 2024 and is an opportunity to visit the site and observe the construction progress.Attendees will need to bring safety protective equipment (hard had, safety vest) and have appropriate footwear (hiking or work boots, no open-toe shoes or sandals) suitable for a short trail walk between the parking area and the construction site as well as around the worksite itself.Attendees will need to sign a waiver before being permitted to enter the worksite.
The existing Hawk Falls Bridge (Bridge NB-610) is a 738'-long, three-span deck truss bridge with deck I-beam approach spans.It carries two lanes of I-476 (Pennsylvania Turnpike Northeast Extension) traffic in each direction over Mud Run in Penn Forest Township and Kidder Township, Carbon County. The replacement bridge is a 720' steel structure featuring a 480' deck arch with steel box arch ribs which is intended to create an aesthetically pleasing structure within Hickory Run State Park.
The group size will be limited to 30 people; thus reservations will be on a first-come first-get basis. Attendees will need to make their own travel arrangements as the site is approximately 1½-2 hours from Philadelphia.Information on the meeting place for the tour will be provided to attendees.
The tour is free for ASHE and ASCE Members.
