New Jersey Department of Transportation, Burlington County Bridge Commission Painting and Structural Repairs for Tacony-Palmyra Bridge

Project Overview

The Burlington-Bristol Bridge, Tacony-Palmyra Bridge and their toll plazas underwent commercial coating removal, rehabilitation and painting. Bridge Commission officials estimated the cost to be about $45 million for the rehabilitation and painting of both bridges, as well as $45 million for a bridge deck replacement on the Burlington-Bristol Bridge.

The rest of the plan included $9.25 million to replace equipment used for openings on both spans and the free Riverside-Delanco bridge over the Rancocas Creek; $2.5 million to construct “traveler systems,” movable platforms beneath the bridges, for easier inspections and repairs; $7.1 million to replace electrical wiring on the Tacony-Palmyra, and $1.2 million for regular structural maintenance. The last time the Tacony-Palmyra Bridge was completely painted was in 1985, but certain sections have been repainted since then.

For this project, Envision was responsible for CPM scheduling services, including the development of the baseline schedule with follow-up monthly progress updates to the baseline schedule.
