Progress at Audubon Bridge
By Robert Thompson, on August 21st, 2008
Audubon Bridge Constructors (ABC) is making progress on the new John Jame Audubon Bridge near New Roads and St. Francisville, Louisiana. Steve has been spending quite a bit of time there looking at shaft excavations ,test shaft installations, and test pile installations. Paul made a trip in July and I made one earlier this month to give Steve a break. It is really amazing to be part of such a large bridge project. The amount of work required to build the foundations is incredible. I have posted a couple of slide shows below from the visits Paul and I made. Links to the slide shows and albums are on the project page.
