Highway Widening in Karst
The proposed widening of six-mile long section of a major highway in southeastern Pennsylvania involves up to 24 feet deep cuts in karst geology. About $25 million dollars were spent in repairing sinkholes during the widening and interchange improvement of an adjacent section of the same highway during 2000–01. This paper discusses the subsurface investigation and design approaches taken for proposed widening in the cut areas.
