Rebuilding Bridges: Turning an Urban Disaster Into an Infrastructure Success Story

Via webinar

Register

On March 30, 2017 a fire under the I-85 bridge in the City of Atlanta caused the interstate bridge to collapse. Following the collapse, the Governor announced a State of Emergency, and the Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT) began the recovery process with $10 million authorized from FHWA as emergency relief funds.  Six weeks and $16.6 million dollars later, the bridge re-opened for the approximately 243,000 daily weekday trips.

In this webinar, GDOT’s Chief Engineer, Meg Pirkle, will discuss the contracting and implementation process of this speedy project delivery of a major urban highway with local and national economy implications.

Speakers
Alice Grossman, Policy Analyst, Eno Center for Transportation
Meg Pirkle, Chief Engineer, Georgia Department of Transportation
