    INNOVATIONS & ACCOMPLISHMENTS East River Bridges A $3.14 billion reconstruction program is underway to rehabilitate all four East River crossings. In 2005, these bridges carried some 498,213 vehicles per day. In 2002, working in coordination with the NYPD and other law enforcement agencies, the Division implemented enhanced security measures on these bridges. This work is ongoing. BROOKLYN BRIDGE The Brooklyn Bridge carried some 132,210 vehicles per day in 2005. The $547 million reconstruction commenced in 1980 with Contract #1, and will continue with Contract #6, currently in the design phase and scheduled for completion in 2013. This contract will include the rehabilitation of both approaches and ramps, the painting of the entire suspension bridge, as well as the seismic retrofitting of the structural elements that are within the Contract #6 project limits.

  • Tidal Scour Analysis - Willis Avenue Bridge, New York City, New York
    TIDAL SCOUR ANALYSIS - WILLIS AVENUE BRIDGE, NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK SERKAN MAHMUTOGLU Earth Tech, 500 Southborough Drive South Portland, Maine 04106, USA RYAN M. EDISON, P.E. Earth Tech, 500 Southborough Drive South Portland, Maine 04106, USA This paper discusses the analysis of navigational velocities, scour and recommended countermeasures at Willis Avenue Bridge in New York City. The bridge crosses the Harlem River and serves as one of the major commuter routes into Manhattan Island. Today, this historic, swing span bridge is being replaced. During the proposed construction of the new bridge, the navigational channel will see varying levels of obstruction that will increase the local current velocities through the piers. This increase in velocities poses potential problems for safe navigation and increased risk of bridge scour. To characterize the very complex tidal dynamics of the project site, a 2D hydrodynamic model was calibrated and verified, prior to analyzing both the maximum expected velocities through the piers and the depth of the associated bridge scour for various construction phases. The results were used to map navigational velocities, design a semi-permeable fender system, calculate scour depths, and to design temporary scour countermeasures. 1 Introduction The Willis Avenue Bridge, opened in 1901, is located at the southern end of the Harlem River in New York, connecting Manhattan Island to the Bronx. It is a swing bridge that carries four lanes of one-way traffic with a daily load of 70,000 vehicles from Manhattan Island to the Bronx. Today, this historic bridge is being replaced with a similar type of structure to improve geometry for vehicle/pedestrian traffic, reduce accidents, increase loading capacity, and to eliminate the present structural and seismic issues.
