The results of the five (5) structure borings (SB-01 through SB-05) completed by Geo Services, along with plan and profile drawings, are included with this report. Boring locations were selected by Geo Services, Inc. and were reviewed and approved by T.Y. Lin International (TY Lin) and the Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT). Boring locations were laid out in the field by Geo Services, Inc personnel after review of accessibility and utility locations. Drilled boring locations are illustrated on the boring location diagram in Appendix C. This report includes recommendations pertaining to the design and construction of the new bridge, earth embankment, a description of soil and groundwater conditions, general construction considerations for the site, location diagram and boring logs. SECTION 02: PROJECT DESCRIPTION There is no existing bridge in the area of the proposed new Ramp D Bridge. The proposed bridge is to be a three-span, continuous welded plate girder structure, supported on two abutments and two piers. The piers are designed to be solid wall type piers. The total out-to-out width of the new bridge is proposed at approximately 47’-8”. The overall length of the bridge along centerline is 501’-8” measured from back of the abutments. As of this report, the bridge has been designated with a Structure Number 016-4102. A new MSE wall will be constructed at the location of East Abutment. The estimated total factored foundation loadings (DL+LL) provided by TY Lin are 284 kips per beam at the abutments and 760 kips per beam at the piers. The proposed footing elevations are shown on the following Table 1– Bottom of Footing Elevations. Table 1 –Bottom of Footing Elevations Location Elevation (ft) East Abutment 614.50 Pier 1 598.80 Pier 2 598.80 West Abutment 603.62 - 2 - STRUCTURE GEOTECHNICAL REPORT IDOT JOB NO: P-91-186-08 RAMP D BRIDGE, COOK COUNTY, IL PROPOSED SN 016-4102 GSI PROJECT NUMBER 08015 PTB 146, ITEM 1 SECTION 03: SUBSURFACE INVESTIGATION PROCEDURES The borings were performed during the months of November and December, 2009, with a truck-mounted drilling rig. Borings performed near the abutments and piers were advanced by means of hollow stem augers to 10 feet and continued with rotary drilling techniques. Representative soil samples were obtained employing split spoon sampling procedures in accordance with AASHTO Method T-206. Samples obtained in the field were returned to our laboratory for further examination and testing. Bedrock cores were obtained in the bridge borings using a NX-size double tubed core barrel with a diamond impregnated bit. Split spoon sampling involves driving a 2.0-inch outside diameter split-barrel sampler into the soil with a 140-pound weight falling freely through a distance of 30 inches. Blow counts are recorded at 6" intervals and the blow counts are shown on the boring logs. The number of blows required to advance the sampler the last 12 inches is termed the Standard Penetration Resistance (N). The N value is an indication of the relative density of the soil. SECTION 04: LAB TESTING PROGRAM The test procedures were performed in accordance with test procedures discussed in the IDOT Geotechnical Manual. All split-spoon samples obtained from the drilling operation were visually classified in the field. Cohesive samples were tested for unconfined compressive strength using an IDOT modified RIMAC test device and/or calibrated penetrometer in the field. The soil testing program included performing water content, density and either unconfined compression and/or calibrated penetrometer tests on the cohesive samples recovered. Water content tests were performed on the non-cohesive samples recovered. These tests were performed upon representative portions of the samples obtained in the field. The results of the above testing, along with a visual classification of the material based upon both the Illinois textural classification and the AASHTO Soil Classification System, are indicated on the boring logs. SECTION 05: SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS Approximately 3 inches to 4.5 feet of topsoil was encountered at the ground surface. The topsoil had moisture content in the range of 29 to 58 percent with an average moisture content of approximately 42 percent. Below the surficial material, clay, clay loam, silty clay loam and silty clay soils were encountered to approximate elevations in the range of 602 to 596 feet. Underlying these cohesive materials, the borings indicated medium dense to very dense loam soils, sands, gravels, silts, fractured rock, and boulders and cobbles to approximate elevations in the range of 560 to 574 feet, - 3 - STRUCTURE GEOTECHNICAL REPORT IDOT JOB NO: P-91-186-08 RAMP D BRIDGE, COOK COUNTY, IL PROPOSED SN 016-4102 GSI PROJECT NUMBER 08015 PTB 146, ITEM 1 where apparent bedrock was encountered. In borings SB-02 and SB-03, approximately 3 foot thick intermediate layers of silty clay/silty clay loam was sampled at elevations between 583 and 574 feet. The cohesive soils were medium stiff to hard with moisture contents within the range of 13% to 26%. The rock core taken at the borings indicated Silurian System, Niagaran Dolomite with an R.Q.D.s in the range of approximately 31% to 97.5%. SECTION 06: WATER TABLE CONDITIONS Groundwater was encountered in the borings during the drilling at approximate elevations between 595 and 599 feet, before switching to rotary drilling. Due to the nature of rotary-wash drilling, it is not possible to attain water levels below 10 feet of depth or after drilling. We estimate the long term water

  • Weekend Closures for Byrne Flyover Work Start Friday
    State of Illinois Bruce Rauner, Governor Illinois Department of Transportation Randall S. Blankenhorn, Secretary FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: CONTACT: August 20, 2015 Guy Tridgell 312.793.4199 Weekend Closures for Byrne Flyover Work Start Friday CHICAGO – The Illinois Department of Transportation today reminded motorists that four weekends of lane closures on the expressway system surrounding the Jane Byrne Interchange in Chicago will begin this Friday. “We have worked closely with the City of Chicago to make sure these upcoming weekends run as smoothly as possible,” said Illinois Transportation Secretary Randy Blankenhorn. “We wish to stress that Chicago remains open for business and people should continue to enjoy all the city has to offer. But they do need to plan accordingly, account for some longer travel times and should strongly consider taking alternate routes or public transportation, especially if they are driving during the overnight hours.” The closures are necessary for the installation of steel beams that will support the deck of the new flyover bridge linking the inbound Dan Ryan Expressway (westbound Interstate 90/94) to the outbound Eisenhower Expressway (westbound Interstate 290), part of the larger overhaul of the Jane Byrne Interchange. To stage and store equipment and materials, the inbound Kennedy Expressway (eastbound Interstate 90/94) ramp to inbound Congress Parkway closed Wednesday night and will remain closed until Aug. 31. A detour route is posted utilizing the Roosevelt Road exit, Jefferson Street, Harrison Street and Wells Street to connect with Congress Parkway. Over the next two weekends, the following ramps and lanes will be closed, weather permitting: Aug.

The department recently updated the project plans to include a second managed lane in each direction of I-55 between Interstate 294 (Tri-State Tollway) and Interstate 90/94 (Dan Ryan Expressway). The meeting will be in an open-house format at the following time and location: Wednesday, Dec. 6 4 – 7 p.m. Toyota Park Stadium Club 7000 Harlem Ave. Bridgeview, Ill. 60455 The state received federal approval in 2016 to build one managed lane in each direction of I-55 between Interstate 355 near Bolingbrook to I-90/94 in Chicago. The revised project proposes to add the second managed lane north of the Tri-State Tollway within the existing IDOT right of way. The additional capacity will make it easier to maintain consistent, reliable speeds and travel times for all I-55 users. No funding has been identified for construction, but IDOT continues to pursue the project as a public-private partnership. Exhibits will be on display and an audio-visual presentation will be shown continuously during the meeting. Project team members will be available to discuss the project and answer questions. Written comments can be submitted at the meeting, mailed afterward or submitted via the project website www.i55managedlaneproject.org.
