The deck was provided in the form of prefabricated bridge units (PBU) and set on integral concrete abutment supported by H-piles. Excavation of approximately 5,000 CY of material to construct a new 22-foot-wide by 200-foot-long riprap lined channel for Muddy Creek. All work was completed within a 16 week closure of Route 28 between January to May 2016.
