Bridge project east main street over CSX/amtrak

The New York Department of Transportation received a $121,878 Formula Grant award from the Federal Highway Administration on January 6, 2022 under the Highway Planning and Construction program (CFDA 20.205). The funding will support rehabilitation of the East Main Street bridge over CSX/Amtrak rails in Rochester, Monroe County, New York. Work will include milling and replacing the existing epoxy overlay, hydro demolition of the top mat, pouring a new concrete overlay, eliminating bridge joints to make the deck jointless over backwalls, modifying backwalls, replacing granite curb and sidewalk repairs, and removing and replacing the concrete parapet and fencing system. Pressure injection of cracks in the existing abutments is also part of the scope. The award was provided to the New York Department of Transportation as a sub-awardee of the State of New York to support necessary bridge maintenance and safety repairs.
