This project includes the complete reconstruction of I-4 between Deland and Daytona. Our subcontracted work includes construction of two ramp bridges over I-4 and US 92, multiple animal crossings, and the removal and replacement of the existing low level bridges over the Tomoka River. Early completion of the Ramp B bridge over US 92 was vital to the project to relieve congestion during Daytona International Speedway events. To add another level of aesthetics, the new Ramp A bridge over I-4 was the first slipformed, stamped barrier wall constructed in Florida.
During Hurricane Charley in 2005, SR 60 sustained significant damage to the eastbound lanes due to erosion of the shoulder and undermining of the pavement along a stretch of this main roadway east of Lake Wales, Florida. The repair entailed driving two permanent rows of steel sheet piling, separated by 20’ buffer, for a distance of 1,220’ where the shoulder had been eroded. The void between the rows of sheeting was filled with flowable fill and capped with concrete, creating a new stable shoulder which enabled the reconstruction of the damaged highway.
