Vermont’s $60 million I-91 Brattleboro BridgeReplacement Project, now inits third and final year ofconstruction, includesreplacement of four agingbridges with two new wider,modern-designed bridges.

The design-build projectis designed and managed byFIGG Bridge Engineers Inc.,based in Tallahassee, Fla.,with a Northeastern regionaloffice in Exton, Pa.

The bridges are beingbuilt by general contractorPCL Civil Contractors Inc.of Tampa, Fla. for theVermont Agency ofTransportation.

Subcontractors for theproject include SebagoTechnics of South Portland,Maine; Golder Associates,founded in Toronto with offices throughout the UnitedStates; Hoyle, Tanner & Associates Inc. of Burlington, Vt.;Worksafe Traffic Control Industries of Barre, Vt.; ValleyCrane Services Inc. of Vernon, Vt.; Rick’s VermontSteelcraft of Bellows Falls, Vt.; and Carroll Concrete Co. of

Brattleboro, Vt.The bridge replacements

are considered important interms of safety and trafficflow. The existing bridgeswere more than 50 years old,narrow and considered struc-turally deficient.

Work on the bridges ismoving along well with amilder winter in the area thisyear. In March 2015,Vermont Agency ofTransportation announcedthat the new bridge projectwas about a year behindschedule.

The New Bridges The most critical new bridge labeled Bridge 9 will be athree-span, 1,036-ft. (315.77 m) -long arching concretebridge over the West River built using balanced cantileverconstruction. Standing 100 ft. (30.5 m) above the river andscenic valley below, the 515-ft. (157 m) main span will forman open gateway anchored by curving, cathedral piers.It will feature 10-ft. (3 m) -wide shoulders and carry two

lanes of traffic each direction, northbound and southboundon I-91.The bridge will include viewing platforms for pedestrians,

hikers and visitors at the base of each pier. The piers will fea-ture Vermont-inspired, stone-formed concrete that blendswith the local environment.Because of its viewer- and environmentally-friendly

design, the crossing has been dubbed “A Bridge to Nature.”Crews have nearly finished pier 1 on Bridge 9 and then

will begin work on pier 2, Hoyne said.The new bridge simplifies the process of crossing the West

River. “It replaces two long truss bridges and replaces it with one

superstructure,” Hoyne said.Another new bridge, known as Bridge 8 will carry the

northbound and southbound lanes of I-91 over UpperDummerston Road using NEXT beams. NEXT beams aremade of steel and are an alternative to concrete box beamsfor 30-ft. (9.1 m) and 90-ft. (27.4 m) spans.Consisting of a double-tee shape beam with a 13-in. (33

cm) wide tee leg, NEXT beams are considered a time- andmoney-saver in modern bridge construction.

Current Construction Status of New BridgesCurrently workers are casting segments of the bridge over

West River with a machine called a form traveler. A seg-mental bridge is a concrete bridge built in short sections, onepiece at a time, as opposed to traditional methods that builda bridge in very large sections. Abutment work at the bridge over Upper Dummerston

Road is complete. Girder erection was taking place in earlyMarch.The old northbound bridge over the West River has been

removed.Most of the work on the new bridges is being done by

large cranes and the form traveler, Hoyne said.The new roadway alignment will continue through 2016.

Project ChallengesForming and reinforcing curving cathedral piers is consid-

ered extremely complex. The effort extended the project sev-eral months past its original time frame.The project also was slowed by permitting delays and

unexpected digging difficulties.

Positive Impact of the I-91 Brattleboro Bridge Project

“We are replacing two aging fracture-critical bridges,”Hoyne said. He pointed out that if the old bridges over the West River

were to close because of a fracture, it would have a seriouseconomic impact on the state.The bridge provides access from the south and is consid-

ered vital for bringing goods into the state.

Harvard Kennedy School Plans Improvements to CampusHarvard Kennedy School (HKS) is mov-

ing forward with the planning and design ofsignificant changes and additions to its cam-pus to enhance its mission. These will createnew spaces for teaching and learning,upgrade the central courtyard as a campusamenity, and improve campus cohesion andcirculation with greater pedestrian connec-tions to Harvard Square and the CharlesRiver. The proposed project will result in the

addition of 91,000 sq. ft. (8,454 sq m) ofspace that will include six new classrooms, anew kitchen and dining facility, offices andmeeting spaces, a new student lounge andstudy space, more collaboration and activelearning spaces as well as a redesigned cen-tral courtyard. The project will also addresskey physical shortcomings in the existingHKS campus, including conflicts in vehicu-lar and pedestrian circulation and compro-

mised off-street loading facilities.The project includes infill construction at

the perimeter of the campus, maintaining theopen landscaped courtyard at its center. Newconstruction will connect the KennedySchool’s four existing buildings with threeadditions serving as links. As part of theproject, the existing central courtyard will beraised to generally align with the grade levelof adjacent streets at key pedestrian accesspoints (at Eliot Street beneath the proposedGateway Building and on the west side at theJFK Park pedestrian connector). The raisedcourtyard will produce a more functionalcentral campus green space while creating anew lower level that contains a below-gradeloading facility, additional program spaceand storm water retention tanks.Subject to regulatory and permit

approvals, construction, beginning with sitepreparation, is tentatively scheduled to beginin April. The project is expected to be com-plete in late 2017 with an official openingexpected in early 2018.

Replacing Aging Bridges Key to Economic Stability in Vt.In addition, the new bridge over the West River will be

nature/enthusiast-oriented. Its viewing platforms overlookthe West River and mountainous valley below.True to its Bridge to Nature theme, piers, viewing plat-

forms and the railings will be complementary of the naturallandscape. A Visual Quality Advisory Team consisting ofVermont Agency of Transportation, local aesthetic commit-tee and FIGG Bridge Engineers Inc. representatives selectedeco-friendly concrete stain colors, platform railing designsand other aesthetic details.

Community Impacts Including Ramp ClosuresTo reduce congestion, traffic personnel closed both Exit 3

on ramps from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Sunday, March 6 andSunday, March 13. Plans are to close the Exit 3 on ramps onSunday afternoons through the end of the ski season.The speed limit on Route 30 in the work zone has been

reduced to 40 mi. (64.4 km) per hour. The route may bereduced to a single lane intermittently with flaggers regulat-

ing traffic within the work zone.The West River Trail is open. But construction vehicles

cross the trail at certain spots, so extreme caution is advisedat those locations.Trail talks will be provided for visitors in the spring.(This story also can be found on Construction

Baker, Polito Announce Workforce Skills Capital GrantsGov. Charlie Baker and Lt. Gov. Karyn

Polito announced $9.3 million in workforceskills equipment grants to 35 high schools,community colleges and vocational trainingproviders across the Commonwealth forvocational-technical education and trainingequipment purchases that connectMassachusetts students and residents to eco-nomic opportunities in high-demand indus-tries.“Workforce skills education and training

plays an enormous role in economic and per-sonal development by helping residentsacquire the skills they need to connect withpromising careers,” said Gov. Baker. “Thesevocational-technical education equipmentgrants will help build stronger communitiesand a more competitive business environ-ment that ensures more residents have theskills they need to succeed in and support theCommonwealth’s economic future.”“These workforce development grants

will build bridges between residents seekingcareers to build a future on, and the employ-ers who need a skilled workforce to grow thestate’s economy,” said Lt. Governor Polito.“Today, too many good-paying jobs aregoing unfilled, because employers are strug-gling to find skilled employees. This invest-ment in training equipment will enable highschools and community colleges across theCommonwealth to equip students with theskills they need to secure a bright future.”The Workforce Skills Capital Grant

Program is a new initiative of the Governor’sWorkforce Skills Cabinet, which seeks toalign education, workforce and economicdevelopment strategies across the state. Gov.Baker tapped Labor and WorkforceDevelopment Secretary Ronald Walker II,Education Secretary James Peyser andHousing and Economic DevelopmentSecretary Jay Ash to work together to devel-op policies to improve economic and jobtraining opportunities for residents of theCommonwealth.As part of the Workforce Skills Cabinet’s

efforts to align resources to better meet com-mon goals, the Workforce Skills Cabinetconsolidated two separate capital grant pro-grams — the former ManufacturingTraining Equipment grants (administered bythe Executive Office of Housing andEconomic Development) and the formerVocational Opportunity Challenge grants (administered by the Executive Office forAdministration and Finance) — into oneunified, integrated and expanded workforcedevelopment capital grant program.The inaugural round of the Workforce

Skills Capital Grant program received 68applications, requesting a total of $18 mil-lion in funding.“We are leveraging our resources to take

the public dollars that are available and fun-neling them into places that can provide theskills and job training that residents need forthe jobs that are available,” said SecretaryWalker. “The goal is to have all our

resources integrated around meeting the tal-ent needs in a particular region.”“These grants will immediately transform

the quality of vocational programs and cut-ting edge technological opportunities,” saidSecretary Peyser. “They will also enabledeeper partnerships between vocationalschools, community colleges, and employ-ers.”“A competitive economy demands a com-

petitive, highly skilled workforce,” saidSecretary Ash. “Through the WorkforceSkills Cabinet’s coordinated efforts to closethe skills gap, we are equipping residentswith the skills needed to fill the jobs of today,and tomorrow, and setting the stage forfuture economic growth.”Consistent with the Baker-Polito

Administration’s support for expandedworkforce development opportunities, theGovernor’s recently filed economic devel-opment legislation requests an additional$75 million in capital authorization for addi-tional training equipment grants thatstrengthen workforce skills, and createstrong employment pipelines.

NORTHUMBERLAND, N.H.(AP) A North Country town that’s beenstruggling since its paper mill closed in2007 and put several hundred peopleout of work has taken a step towardbringing back jobs.

Northumberland voters voted toborrow up to $400,000 to put in waterand sewage lines to the 137-acre prop-erty formerly the site of Wausau PaperMill in the village of Groveton.However, the funding is dependent ona federal grant of about $800,000. Ifthe grant is not received, the moneywill not be raised.

Local and state officials have beentrying to bring businesses to the areafor years in an impoverished regionthat’s lost about 3,000 jobs in the lastdecade due to the closing of manufac-turers, including a pulp mill in Berlin,an Ethan Allen furniture plant acrossthe state line in Vermont and theBalsams resort hotel.

A North Country regional specialistof the state’s Division of Resourcesand Economic Development believesthe town has a good chance of gettingthe grant from the U.S. Economic

Development Administration. “I think because the area is dis-

tressed as much as it is, those are thekind of areas that they like to obvious-ly assist any way they can,’’ said BenoLamontagne, North Country industrialagent.

At the peak of the industry in the1920s, there was a sawmill and at leastfive paper mills in the North Country.One of the paper mills shut down in1930, and the industry had been on thedecline since.

New Hampshire Public Radioreported the question at the town meet-ing was whether it was smart to take on$400,000 in debt without a guaranteethat it would mean more jobs.

“If you people vote no today you aregoing to throw away a tremendouschance to save this town,’’ said KenStrong, who spoke in favor of the towntaking a chance.

Most buildings on the property havebeen demolished. Three are left,including two former warehouses andWausau’s former office. There is natu-ral gas at the site, and the county haseconomic incentives for new construc-

tion and job creation. Several business-es have looked at the property in recentyears, including an energy develop-ment company that considered build-ing a liquefied gas plant, but that pro-posal fell through.

Economic development officialshave promoted North Country reloca-tion and expansion to businesses foryears, with an emphasis on Canada.Groveton is about a half-hour from theborder.

“Yes, it’s certainly far out of theway, and we know that more thanthree-quarters of the new companiesthat come to our state come fromMassachusetts,’’ Lamontagne said,and most of them don’t go that farnorth.

“If we’re going to turn the economyaround in northern Carroll, northernGrafton and all of Coos County, it’sprobably going to come from ourlargest trading partner, our friendsnorth of the border,’’ he said.
