Utility Work Marks Phase I of ODOT’s $84M I-76 Project
By Irwin Rapoport
CEG CORRESPONDENT
Shelly & Sands (S&S) started work on the Ohio Department of Transportation’s (ODOT) $84 million Main/Broadway interchange improvement project, a major urban renewal project for Akron, in June 2016, and the project is set for completion in July 2020. The plan, developed by ODOT and the city of Akron, improves safety and will reduce the number of crashes, replace aging infrastructure and provide roads that meet current design standards. The work entails the reconfiguration of the I-76/77 Main/Broadway interchange ramps; relocation and modifying of sections of several side streets; and the permanent closure of the I-76/77 Grant Street/Wolf Ledges Parkway interchange ramps. The work area covers one mile of I-76, one mile of Main and Broadway and 11 bridges. “The Grant St. and Wolf Ledges exit and entrance ramps will be permanently closed,” said Lorie Feudner, P.E. ODOT District 4 traffic studies engineer. “Upon completion, all traffic will exit at the Main/Broadway interchange creating a single point of access to downtown Akron along I-76.” The majority of highway components are between 40 and 50 years old, facilitating the replacement of nine bridges and complete pavement replacement on I-76 between Princeton St. and Sumner St. pedestrian bridge. The new infrastructure was designed by AECOMM . “The contractor may use any portion of the project right-of-way for staging, equipment storage, or

an office site with the approval of the engineer,” said Jason Young, P.E. ODOT District 4 construction engineer. “This project takes place in an urban environment and to minimize any adverse construction noise impacts, the contractor is restricted from operating construc-
tion equipment between the hours of 10:00 p.m. and 6:00 a.m. on city streets.” The work site encompasses four neighborhoods: the downtown area, south Akron, Summit Lake and University Park. Pete Kinzer, Shelly & Sands
project manager, said that the work is divided into four phases — Phase 1, the S. Main/S. Broadway section and three bridges to be completed in late fall 2017; Phases 2 and 3, I-76 EB/WB, including and eight bridges to be completed in 2018 and 2019; and Phase 4,
final surface pavements to be completed by July 2020. While some minor work has been done on I-76, the Phase 1 work has crews focusing on underground infrastructure installation with a new 66-in. (167.6 cm) diameter sanitary sewer pipe with bypass pumping that is 20 ft. (6 m) deep, and new waterlines. “We’re doing this while avoiding existing utilities,” said Kinzer. “We’re also doing some excavation work. We demolished Wolf Ledges Parkway Bridge that spans I-76. It took us a month to do that, removing the deck at night with some temporary rolling road closures at 15 to 20 minute intervals and dealing with the abutments during the day. The bridge crosses the interstate on an angle, but it is similar to the nearby Grant Street bridge, which is also being rebuilt,” said Kinzer, “We hope to set beams on Wolf Ledges and finish it in early April and complete the Grant Street bridge in October.” S. Main and S. Broadway range from three to five lanes in each direction as some lanes link to I-76 ramps. “We’re changing the alignment of south S. Broadway and S. Main, which will be combined and merge at a single point at the south end of the project so that the road is more efficient,” said Kinzer. “We’re also building a roundabout near this area. Motorists, so far, are being very cooperative in the work zone.” There has been a fair amount of night work thus far. “We had to do some temporary widening with concrete to strengthen the shoulders on 1-76 see ODOT page 2

— eastbound and westbound,” said Kinzer, “and we had to tear down the existing pier and put in a new pier in the median. We pulled traffic to the outside to get it done as rapidly as possible.” The major subcontractors on the project are: A&A Safety Inc. for traffic control; Aeromark Inc. for pavement striping; B&G Trucking & Construction for walls and bridge decks; Boca for asphalt milling; Cleveland Environmental Services for building demolition; DOT Diamond Core Drilling for sawcutting; Dresden Landscaping; Follow the River Designs LLC for environmental monitoring and controls; Foundation Steel for structural reinforcing steel; Lake Erie Construction Company for guardrail and signs; Lionel Construction Company for concrete pavements; Miller Cable Company for electrical items; Vermillion Tree Service for clearing and grubbing; and W. L. Markers, Inc. for RPM’s. When completed, crews will have removed 200,000 tons (181,436 t) of asphalt, 27,000 tons (24,493 t) of concrete, 1,400 tons (1,270 t) of steel, and 200,000 cu. yds. (152,910 cu m) of excavation. New materials should include 112,000 tons (101,604 t) of asphalt, 44,000 cu. yds. (33,640 c m) of concrete, 5.2 million lbs. (2.3 million kg) of structural steel, 3.4 million lbs. (1.5 million kg) of reinforcing steel, 62,000 ft. (18,897 m) of pipe, 78,000 ft. (23,774 m) of underdrain, 28,000 ft. (8,534 m) of piling, and 3,500 ft. (1,066) of drilled shafts. “ODOT typically lets you use recycled asphalt products,” said Kinzer, “so some of the asphalt will be recycled.” Currently, S&S has sanitary sewer, waterline, bridge and reenforcing steel crews on site, which account for 30 to 40 people on site. Kinzer pointed out that planning is ongoing for the Phase 2 work and this is aided by a general bridge superintendent, a bridge project manager, a project engineer, a roadway superintendent and an onsite cost accountant. Numerous foremen, safety personnel, equipment managers and estimators also offer valuable input.
When the interstate work is completed, it will be three to four lanes in each direction and have 10 to 12 ft. (3 to 3.7 m) shoulders on either side. The median/concrete wall will be replaced. The work will begin on the south side on the westbound lanes and then proceed to the eastbound lanes. There are two sets of twinbridges along I-76 , with one that crosses CSX Railway tracks. “They are doing away with a lot of the spans on these two structures,” said Greg Sykes, bridge superintendent, and they will become embankment and MSE wall. We have two MSE walls that are adjacent to the railroad, one of which will have six bridges sitting on the same shared abutment. CSX attends our bi-weekly meetings and we have a full-time railroad flagger that is paid for by ODOT. There are between 36 and 39 trains a day.” Robert Hunt, Tom O’Brien,
The work area covers one mile of I-76, one mile of Main and Broadway and 11 bridges.

bridge engineers, and Kinzer are working with CSX to determine the most efficient ways to demolish the bridges that span the tracks to schedule the beam erection for the new bridges. “You can’t control the weather or the utilities,” said Kinzer. “You just deal with them as they come and do as best as you can, come up with your best plan, and know that there will be some curve balls thrown at you. Everyone is working together to make this a successful project.” On this project S&S is using
Link-Belt 138HS 80-ton crawler and Grove RT60 cranes; John Deere 400D articulated dumps; Cat D6N and John Deere 750K dozers; Case CX80, Cat 345 CL, Cat 330 C, John Deere 245G, Kobelco SK135, Kobelco SK260, Komatsu PC 400 and Komatsu PC228 excavators; Cat 420D backhoes; Ingersoll Rand SD-100, Cat 815 and Hamm HD110/120 rollers; a Vogele Vision 5200-2 paver, a Hamm GRW 280i roller, Terex CR662 and Vogele MT3000 material transfer machines; Cat 938, Cat 943, John Deere 624K
and Kawasaki 70ZV loaders; Cat 16G graders; Soilmec SR-30 ADV and LoDril DH30 drill rigs; and a SkyTrak 8042 telehandler. The company has an Akron office/shop that is 10 mi. (16 km) from the work site — mechanics can be there in 20 minutes. Mike Reischman, S&S’s area equipment manager, runs the shop and has three mechanics to aid him. Reischman attends the S&S project meetings. “Our mechanics communicate with our field managers and equipment operators daily,” he said. “Attending the bi-weekly meetings really helps us focus on the current schedule and allows us to focus on what hurdles to tackle first.” Mike Roth, S&S mechanic, agrees. “Most of our hurdles right now are replacing buckets and repairing teeth/shanks on excavators,” he said. “Our operators have been great about communicating what parts are wearing out and need replaced — they have been very proactive and conscientious about keeping us informed. We are also working on drill rigs and augers
frequently since our drilled shaft crew started work about one month ago. So far, we are keeping up, but we will get into some night maintenance next year and utilize an oil/lube truck from our Zanesville shop to help keep up with the aggressive project schedule.” The company owns most of the equipment used on the project, although some manlifts and all-terrain forklifts may be rented at some point. S&S’s main equipment dealers are Columbus Equipment in Columbus, Ohio; The McLean Company in Columbus, Ohio; Murphy Tractor in Cambridge, Ohio; Ohio Cat in Zanesville, Ohio; Rudd Equipment in Columbus, Ohio; and Southeastern Equipment in Cambridge, Ohio. S&S has several 500- and 1,000-gallon on site fuel storage tanks that are fitted with sensors to alert the fuel supplier that the tanks need to be refilled.

OAIMA Holds 19th Annual Legislative Reception in Columbus he Ohio Aggregates and Industrial Minerals Association (OAIMA), held its 19th Annual Legislative Reception on Feb. 15 at the Ohio Statehouse in Columbus, Ohio. The reception was attended by nearly 150 legislators and legislative aides who were on hand to discuss industry related issues with OAIMA members and their guests. Two key issues discussed at the reception were zoning laws and their impact on access to aggregates, and transportation issues created by Ohio Bill SB30, a patchwork of county-wide traffic regulations likely to create confusion which will add to transportation costs. Other topics discussed at the reception were support for ODOT’s two-year budget proposal and the need to protect access to local aggregates sources. Sponsors for the 2017 Legislative Reception include Barrett Paving Materials; CEC; CF Poeppelman Inc.; East Fairfield Coal Co.; Eastman and Smith LTD; The Gerken Companies; Lehigh Hanson; Martin Marietta; Mar-Zane Materials Division; Melvin Stone Co.; National Lime and Stone Co.; Ohio CAT; Olen Corp.; Shelly Materials; Terracon; and Watson Gravel.
