  • Queen Elizabeth Way / Martindale Road Bridge Demolition Detour Analysis
    QUEEN ELIZABETH WAY / MARTINDALE ROAD BRIDGE DEMOLITION DETOUR ANALYSIS Fabio Saccon, P.Eng Area Traffic Manager Bernard James Engineer in Training Martin Sneep Senior Project Manager Lance Dutchak Traffic Supervisor Traffic Office Central Region Ministry of Transportation Ontario Paper prepared for presentation Session on Innovative Ways to Increase Traffic Safety and Efficiency 2010 Annual Conference of the Transportation Association of Canada Halifax, Nova Scotia QUEEN ELIZABETH WAY / MARTINDALE ROAD BRIDGE DEMOLITION DETOUR ANALYSIS ABSTRACT The Queen Elizabeth Way (QEW) in St. Catharines, Ontario, was closed in both directions to facilitate the demolition of the Martindale Bridge from midnight on Saturday, October 17 to 10am on Sunday, October 18. All QEW traffic was diverted onto detour routes. The QEW has an AADT of approximately 66,400 vehicles at Martindale Road, and an hourly volume of approximately 1,800 vehicles from Saturday midnight to Sunday 10:00am. This is a particularly unique location given the limited parallel routes for crossing the Welland Canal and other watercourses. Due to the magnitude of the closure, a detailed Traffic Management Plan and Communications Plan were developed to ensure road users were provided ample advance notification and guidance to safely and efficiently navigate around the closure, or change their trip in space or time. To monitor the effectiveness and performance of the planning activities and detour routes, travel time and traffic volume data were collected using in-vehicle Global Positioning Satellite (GPS) data loggers, as well as, in-pavement Inventory Count Management Station (ICMS) detection loops. The analysis showed that the communications plan achieved a 38.9% reduction in volume from the area.

Introduction … Bypassing Niagara Falls has led to the construction of four successive Welland Canals over the years. Work on the first began in 1824. Construction of the current canal started in 1913, was interrupted by World War I, and was completed in 1932. The development of the St. Lawrence Seaway in the 1950s ultimately led to the Welland Bypass project, a major realignment of the central section of the canal in the 1960s and 70s. Many people find it fun to watch the big boats do their stuff. I'm especially interested. My great great grandfather emigrated from Scotland to Canada in 1837. He was a stone mason by trade, and worked on the construction of the second Welland Canal. And I came in contact with the Welland Bypass project in a variety of ways myself while working in nearby Hamilton in the 1960s. This isn't a typical Travel-Pix package.
