  • Toll Roads in the United States: History and Current Policy
    TOLL FACILITIES IN THE UNITED STATES Bridges - Roads - Tunnels - Ferries August 2009 Publication No: FHWA-PL-09-00021 Internet: http://www.fhwa.dot.gov/ohim/tollpage.htm Toll Roads in the United States: History and Current Policy History The early settlers who came to America found a land of dense wilderness, interlaced with creeks, rivers, and streams. Within this wilderness was an extensive network of trails, many of which were created by the migration of the buffalo and used by the Native American Indians as hunting and trading routes. These primitive trails were at first crooked and narrow. Over time, the trails were widened, straightened and improved by settlers for use by horse and wagons. These became some of the first roads in the new land. After the American Revolution, the National Government began to realize the importance of westward expansion and trade in the development of the new Nation. As a result, an era of road building began. This period was marked by the development of turnpike companies, our earliest toll roads in the United States. In 1792, the first turnpike was chartered and became known as the Philadelphia and Lancaster Turnpike in Pennsylvania. It was the first road in America covered with a layer of crushed stone. The boom in turnpike construction began, resulting in the incorporation of more than 50 turnpike companies in Connecticut, 67 in New York, and others in Massachusetts and around the country. A notable turnpike, the Boston-Newburyport Turnpike, was 32 miles long and cost approximately $12,500 per mile to construct. As the Nation grew, so did the need for improved roads.

  • STATE—Concrete Bridges in Florida a History
    STATE Concrete Bridges in Florida A History of Innovation by Lex Collins, Florida Department of Transportation lorida has long been famous for its sunshine Fand beautiful beaches. So it is only natural that most of the state’s population is located along the coastline. Florida is the fourth most populous state in the United States, yet it ranks only 22nd in land area. The Sunshine State is also the top travel destination in the world. Because of all it offers, the state’s population is growing at a significant rate. All this means that Small arch bridge in Mexico Beach large numbers of bridges continue to be required is fitting for the for so many people living in a relatively small site. Photo: PB. area. However, the same warm weather and salt water that bring people to Florida also combine to create a severely corrosive environment for its infrastructure. Thus, concrete has been and remains a natural choice for the state’s bridge designers. Florida has been using concrete for bridge construction for over 90 years. We have a reinforced concrete bridge built in 1915 and a series of precast, prestressed concrete I-beam bridges built in the mid-1950s, all of which are still in service. Because all bridges tend to be a focal point for the landscapes in which they are placed, the state’s citizens demand and deserve attractive structures that enhance their surroundings, instead of dividing and detracting from them. At the same time, public budgets are always tight and owners require bridges that are both affordable and durable.

  • Paper #103 FDOT Experience with PBES for Small
    FDOT Experience with PBES for Small-Medium Span Bridges Steven Nolan, P.E, Florida Dept. of Transportation (1), (850) 414-4272, [email protected] Sam Fallaha, P.E, Florida Dept. of Transportation (1), (850) 414-4296, [email protected] Vickie Young, P.E, Florida Dept. of Transportation (1), (850) 414-4301, [email protected] (1) State Structures Design Office, 605 Suwannee St, Tallahassee FL. 32399 ABSTRACT In the last quarter century, some elaborate methods of accelerated bridge construction (ABC) have been explored and executed in Florida, predominately though necessity in the segmental construction. ABC techniques have also been applied to more traditional flat-slab and slab-on-girder bridges including: Prefabricated Bridge Elements and Systems (PBES), full size bridge moves, top down construction, and other efforts to minimize road user delays and environmental impacts. This paper focuses on four modest structural systems which were successfully implemented on FDOT construction projects since the initiation of FHWA’s Every Day Counts program. This discussion focuses on ABC structural systems for: Precast Intermediate Bent Caps, Precast Full-Depth Bridge Deck Panels, Prestressed Concrete Florida-Slab Beams, and Geosynthetic Reinforced Soil Integrated Bridge Systems. INTRODUCTION Florida has been heavily involved in accelerated bridge construction activities (ABC) since the middle of the last century, primarily driven for economic advantage, with efforts predominantly led by the precast concrete industry. In the last quarter century, some elaborate methods of accelerated bridge construction have been explored and executed in Florida, predominately though necessity in the post-tensioned (PT) segmental construction to provide economy through speed of fabrication and erection, to offset significant mobilization and setup cost, specialized PT subcontractors and equipment.
