The project is located in downtown Westfield and has a value of $60 million dollars. Work includes a new Truman Truss bridge spanning the Westfield river, rehabilitation of the existing truss bridge and replacing the active CSX viaduct bridge as well as extensive utility installations.
Work activities included: temporary trestle spanning the river, cofferdams and dewatering, caissons, H-piles, concrete piers and abutments, structural steel.
