Design, Construction, and Instrumentation of the Maumee River Cable-Stayed Bridge Delta Frames
Currently under construction, the new I-280 Maumee River Crossing Bridge Project in Toledo, Ohio, at a cost of $220 million, is the largest single project ever undertaken by the Ohio Department of Transportation. The new bridge will bypass one of the last lift bridges on the Interstate system allowing the existing bascule lift span structure to be used for local and pedestrian traffic. This bascule bridge opens in excess of 900 times a year causing major disruption to interstate traffic. Interstate 280 runs north and south through eastern Toledo in a narrow corridor surrounded by residential areas. The City of Toledo and northwest Ohio sit at the crossroads of land and water-based commerce in the Great Lakes area, and Interstate 280 provides a vital link between northwest Ohio and southern Michigan The new bridge consists of approximately 27,000 linear feet of precast concrete segmental construction including a unique cable-stayed main span unit for a total of 1.2 million square feet of bridge deck. The construction contract was awarded in January of 2002 to Fru-Con Construction Corporation of Ballwin, Missouri. Work on the bridge began in the spring of 2002 and has a scheduled completion date of 2006.
