  • Submitted by the City of Rensselaer
    Downtown Revitalization Initiative “Resurgent Rensselaer” – Submitted by the City of Rensselaer BASIC INFORMATION Regional Economic Development Council (REDC) Region: Capital District Municipality Name: City of Rensselaer Downtown Name: Rensselaer Transit Village County: Rensselaer Vision for Downtown. Provide a brief statement of the municipality’s vision for downtown revitalization. The City of Rensselaer is in the process of reinventing itself as an active waterfront transit village where residents can “Live, Work and Play.” In order to accomplish this mission, the city plans to completely redevelop its waterfront, redefine Broadway as its Main Street, and improve connectivity from new residential, retail, commercial and recreational uses to the Albany/Rensselaer Train Station. Justification. Provide an overview of the downtown, highlighting the area’s defining characteristics and the reasons for its selection. Explain why the downtown is ready for Downtown Revitalization Initiative (DRI) investment, and how that investment would serve as a catalyst to bring about revitalization. The City of Rensselaer is the prime example of a community which is in the midst of rebirth as a modern-day transit village. The city boasts a wonderful location with easy access to regional rail transportation, waterfront recreation, new mixed-use housing developments and a traditional Main Street thoroughfare along Broadway. Moreover, Broadway directly connects the waterfront to a number of historic resources within the city, offering an opportunity to rebrand the city as a modern transit village and historic maritime port of call along the Hudson. A historic impediment to redevelopment along Broadway and the waterfront has been the existence of perceived and potential brownfield sites, as highlighted in the City’s New York State Brownfield Opportunity Areas Program Nomination Study.

  • Estimating Fatigue Life of Patroon Island Bridge Using Strain Measurements
    REPORT FHWA/NY/SR-04/142 Estimating Fatigue Life of Patroon Island Bridge Using Strain Measurements RYAN LUND SREENIVAS ALAMPALLI SPECIAL REPORT 142 TRANSPORTATION RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT BUREAU NEW YORK STATE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION George E. Pataki, Governor/Joseph H. Boardman, Commissioner ESTIMATING FATIGUE LIFE OF PATROON ISLAND BRIDGE USING STRAIN MEASUREMENTS Ryan Lund, Civil Engineer I, Transportation Research & Development Bureau Sreenivas Alampalli, Director, Bridge Program and Evaluation Services Bureau Special Report 142 November 2004 TRANSPORTATION RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT BUREAU New York State Department of Transportation, 50 Wolf Road, New York 12232 ABSTRACT The design fatigue life of a bridge component is based on the stress spectrum the component experiences and the fatigue durability. Changes in traffic patterns, volume, and any degradation of structural components can influence the fatigue life of the bridge. A fatigue life evaluation, reflecting the actual conditions, has value to bridge owners. This report presents a study where the remaining fatigue life of the Patroon Island Bridge, which carries Interstate 90 over the Hudson River, was estimated as part of a structural integrity evaluation and a larger evaluation of the entire interchange. The Patroon Island Bridge consists of ten spans. Seven spans are considered the main spans and consist of steel trusses and concrete decks. The other three spans are considered approach spans and consist of plate girders. The overall bridge length is 1,795 feet. Procedures outlined in the AASHTO Guide Specifications for Fatigue Evaluation of Existing Steel Bridges and strain data from critical structural members were used to estimate the remaining fatigue life of selected bridge components.

  • Expressway System Options (3.2 MB Pdf)
    Working Group B Draft Report Expressway System Options August 2005 SUMMARY The Capital District Transportation Committee is in the midst of an update to its official New Visions regional transportation plan. The update will extend the horizon to 2030 and address emerging issues. In January 2004, CDTC established five “working groups” to help the staff analyze in parallel the subjects requiring further study (as identified by the Quality Region Task Force) and to guide the documentation of the analysis. Working Group B was charged with investigating and documenting “Expressway System Issues The “expressway system” is and Options”. Working Group B was made up of defined as the entire interstate representatives from CDTC staff, NYSDOT Region 1, system, Alternate Route 7, NY NYSDOT Main Office, CDTA, the New York State 85 from I-90 to the NYS Thruway Authority (NYSTA), and one Quality Region Thruway, the I-90 Phase I Task Force member. This report summarizes the research, Connector and the South Mall analysis and findings by Working Group B. Expressway/Dunn Memorial Bridge. Working group members representing the New York State Department of Transportation and the New York State Thruway Authority were asked for detailed data regarding current infrastructure needs and attendant costs. NYSDOT, NYSTA and CDTA also provided a detailed inventory of the current ITS infrastructure and planned additions to that infrastructure. For the purpose of the Working Group B effort, the “expressway system” is defined as “Expressway” System in the Capital District the entire interstate system, Alternate Route 7, NY 85 from I-90 to the NYS Thruway, the I-90 Phase I Connector and the South Mall Expressway/Dunn Memorial Bridge.

    Working Group B Report Revised Draft Expressway System Options April 2007 SUMMARY The Capital District Transportation Committee is in the midst of an update to its official New Visions regional transportation plan. The update will extend the horizon to 2030 and address emerging issues. In January 2004, CDTC established five “working groups” to help the staff analyze in parallel the subjects requiring further study (as identified by the Quality Region Task Force) and to guide the documentation of the analysis. Working Group B was charged with investigating and documenting “Expressway System Issues The “expressway system” is and Options”.

This report summarizes the research, Connector and the South Mall analysis and findings by Working Group B. Expressway/Dunn Memorial Bridge. The 2004 report has been modified slightly to acknowledge that the New Visions 2030 Finance Plan overall budget is consistent with the Working Group B bridge needs estimates, pavement and bridge maintenance estimates, and most of the section-specific reconstruction estimates. The cost estimates for the Thruway bridges have been more clearly defined as part of the Finance Task Force work. Consequently, the Finance Task Force numbers will be used in the New Visions 2030 Plan. Working group members representing the “Expressway” System in the Capital District New York State Department of Transportation and the New York State Thruway Authority were asked for detailed data regarding current infrastructure needs and attendant costs.
