The Q-Bridge main span bridge foundations and I-95 Northbound approach structures will be constructed in advance of the new Q-Bridge contract. The construction will be accomplished 'off line' from I-95 thereby minimizing impacts to interstate traffic. Foundation construction will include the main river pier foundations for the extradosed cable-stayed portion of the new Q-Bridge. Approach structures will include the final Route 34 Eastbound, I-91 Southbound and Wooster Street, as well as mainline I-95 Northbound connections to the new Q-Bridge.
The project will also include local road reconstruction including Hamilton Street, East Street and Water Street located on the west shore of the Quinnipiac River and Forbes Avenue and Waterfront Street located on the east shore of the Quinnipiac River. Roadway, drainage, as well as traffic signal improvements are planned.
