98229 | 59th Street over AMTRAK (Bridge) (Philadelphia City)

This project is a bridge replacement of 59th Street over AMTRAK in the City of Philadelpia.
The current structure was built in 1926, and consists of a four simple-span, partially concrete-encased-steel girder/floorbeam/jackarch superstructure atop reinforced concrete abutment and pier substructures. The anticipated work includes demolition and removal of the existing superstructure and portions of the existing reinforced concrete abutments & piers and construction of a new steel multi-girder bridge with reinforced concrete composite deck atop reinforced concrete abutments and piers; as well as roadway approach reconstruction and repaving, curb and sidewalk reconstruction, streetlighting improvements, ADA accessibility improvements, railroad electric traction (ET) system modification and utility relocations, and other related work.
A final alternative for bridge rehabilitation or replacement is determined upon federal National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) or state Categorical Exclusion clearance.
This project is a component of the County Bridge Line Item (MPMS #95447).

Limits: 59th Street over AMTRAK
