A Modern Truss for the 21st Century - The Pond Eddy Bridge Replacement Project

pond-eddyThe historic Pond Eddy Bridge spanning the Delaware River between Pike County, Pennsylvania and Sullivan County, New York, was replaced in 2018 with a two-span Pratt truss structure constructed immediately upstream of the original, pin-connected, Pennsylvania (Petit) thru-truss bridge built in 1905. Unique site conditions, including restricted construction access points, archaeological concerns, T&E species, and the need maintain recreational boating traffic at all times required complex construction staging, significant coordination with environmental and government agencies, and in-depth community involvement through a Design Advisory Committee (DAC) of local stakeholders.
