Took about 10 years to get a bridge replacement over here approved, and 5 months to build it. It wasn't precast though. They did a really nice job on the bridge but the paving leading up to it is pretty shotty, very bumpy and a deep transition from the existing road like a speed bump. I think they rushed the paving and didn't get a proper road base down before paving.

Ah yes my homie Pennsylvania Department of Transportation

In Texas, it would have been 10 years of increasing vehicle weight restrictions on the old bridge until only bicycles could cross it. In the 11th year, an impending failure noticed by an inspector would then result in the bridge being closed for 6 months while a new design was drawn and approved. The remainder of the 11th year would be consumed with public hearings and contractor selection. In the 12th year, a few days here and there of sporadic work would occur, spaced by weeks of no work being accomplished. Sometime around the 13th year it would be announced the new bridge was built, but it would be closed until... ....later in the 13th year when the sign and striping crews get to it. Then, for reasons completely unknown, a new lower speed limit will be imposed. Bridge finished.

@Yohann67

10 ай бұрын

By the time they upgraded bridge is built the weight of the average Texan increased and again relegated the traffic to bicycles……

This shows that major construction CAN be done extremely fast, either because of an emergency, or because of too much inconvenience for drivers or residents. But in this case, the prefab sections all had to be made beforehand, and they had to be of a size and shape that could be transported and then put in place.

As a Swede, this is quite remarkable. They replaced a bridge over a river on a major highway, about the same size as this. 20 km detour for 3 weeks. Then they did a shoddy job paving it, so they had to close it for a couple more days a month later to repave it. Admittedly working above a river is a bit more demanding, but come on...

I am just guessing here but usually it is money. Most governments put jobs out to bid and usually the lowest price wins. Which means people working regular 40 hr work weeks because overtime is more expensive. But in cases where time is critical and they are willing to pay for not only the overtime but the shear number of people and equipment needed at one time than they can accomplish amazing things. I saw one video from China where they worked on some raised highway project with over 200 excavators working in a line to demolish the structure at the same time.

to all those commenting about "ugh where I live this kind of thing takes forever" yeah this is a major road with no reasonable detour, so they spend a lot and pay a lot of people for a fast replacement method. they do things slowly where they can, cause it's cheaper.

It took a year from where i live for them to do that

They did the same thing in the small Michigan town I live in for the CN rail line over the river here in town. It was an old wood bridge, and was approaching a complete rebuild. Instead they put all the trains on one of the double track here, cut the old bridge out, and put in half of a prefab bridge. They then filled it with ballast, and put a new track over it. They then cut out the second track, and did the same. It took just about 3 days. Now, if you looked straight down to the track on the Amtrak that runs through town, you won't know that you're on a bridge, since it's a ballast filled bridge.
