McKinley Avenue over Dry Run

The City of Columbus and S.D. Pomeroy & Associates prepared plans and documents to widen McKinley Avenue from a two-lane road to a four-lane street with curbs. The existing bridge over Dry Run was deficient structurally and functionally. The consulting engineer prepared plans for a three-sided flat top structure with cast-in-place headwalls and wingwalls. The low bidder, Kokosing Construction, requested to use the CON/SPAN^® Bridge System for the application and received approval from the city.

Kokosing Construction justified the CON/SPAN^® system for economy, ease of construction, and time savings. The CON/SPAN^® bridge was built utilizing part-width construction and the CON/SPAN^® precast wingwall system. CON/SPAN^®’s 24-foot span units were designed to meet ODOT and City of Columbus specifications.
