Construction update:

July 29th, 2010

After the start of construction, several issues were identified and had to be resolved. The most significant of these issues, in both time and impact, was the replacement of a 42 inch diameter water main that carries one-third of the potable water into the City of New Haven. The existing water main was in close proximity to the underground construction of the new bridge abutment. In order to preclude any chance of damaging the water main and possibly restricting water usage in the City, after considering several alternatives, the decision was made to relocate the water main out of the immediate construction area. The water main relocation is currently underway and should be completed by the end of July 2010.
