INTRODUCTION

2017 TEN YEAR RENEWAL AND REPLACEMENT PLAN - NARRATIVE SUMMARY

PAGE 1 OF 58

INTRODUCTION

The Rhode Island Turnpike and Bridge Authority (RITBA) currently operates and

maintains the Newport/Pell, Mount Hope, Jamestown Verrazzano, and Sakonnet

River Bridges. Additionally, the Authority operates and maintains RI Route 138

from Route 1A in North Kingston to the Newport/Pell Bridge, as well as, the

administration and maintenance facilities associated with the various bridges.

History

The Rhode Island Turnpike and Bridge Authority was created in 1954 by the Rhode

Island General Assembly as a corporate body with power to construct, acquire,

maintain, operate bridge projects and issue bonds as defined by law (P.L. 3390).

The Authority was created in order to facilitate vehicular traffic, remove many of

the present handicaps and hazards on the congested highways in the state, alleviate

the barriers caused by large bodies of water, and promote the agricultural and

industrial development of the state (PL. 3390 Sec. 3).

In 1963, Public Law Chapter 165 amended Title 24, Chapter 12 to dissolve the

Mount Hope Bridge Authority and Jamestown Bridge Commission whose

authorities and powers were transferred to the Rhode Island Turnpike and Bridge

Authority. The Authority was responsible for the construction of the Newport

Bridge (later renamed the Claiborne Pell Bridge, but commonly referred to as the

Newport/Pell Bridge), which opened to traffic on June 28, 1969.

Up until 2013, the Authority was responsible for the operation and maintenance of

the Newport/Pell Bridge between Jamestown and Newport, and the Mount Hope

Bridge between Portsmouth and Bristol. In 2013, the Rhode Island General

Assembly amended Title 24, Chapter 12 to allow the Authority to acquire the

Sakonnet River Bridge and the Jamestown Verrazzano Bridge from the State of

Rhode Island. Along with the Jamestown Verrazzano Bridge, a portion of Route

138, from the Jamestown Bridge to the Route 1A interchange in North Kingston

was also transferred to RITBA. This 2.7 mile long stretch of Route 138, referred to

INTRODUCTION


PAGE 2 OF 58

herein as the RI 138 connector highway, includes seven minor bridges, roadway

lighting, landscaping and an extensive storm drainage system. Similarly, along with

the new Sakonnet River Bridge, two adjacent minor bridges, a bike path, storm

drainage systems, roadway lighting and other related components became property

of RITBA.

In 2014, the 2014 General Assembly passed Article 21 of the FY 2015

Appropriations Act. Under this Act, starting in FY 2015, 3.5-cents of the gasoline

tax is transferred to the Turnpike and Bridge Authority, to be used for maintenance,

operations, capital expenditures and debt service on any of its projects in lieu of a

toll on the Sakonnet River Bridge, which was originally authorized by the 2012

General Assembly and reconsidered after public debate over tolling.

Authority Composition

The Authority’s Board of Directors consists of five (5) members, including the

Director of the Department of Transportation who is a member ex-officio, and four

(4) members appointed by the Governor for four (4) year terms.

Ten Year Renewal and Replacement Plan

The RITBA has historically developed a Ten Year Renewal and Replacement plan

(10-Year Plan) for their physical assets. Up until 2014, the 10-Year Plan focused on

the Newport/Pell and Mount Hope bridges, the Jamestown toll plaza and the

administration building. Following the transfer of Jamestown Verrazzano Bridge,

Sakonnet River Bridge, RI 138 connector highway and associated facilities from the

State of Rhode Island, the 10-Year Plan was expanded to include all the new assets.

The 10-Year Plan, updated annually, includes the planned capital improvements

with associated estimates of engineering, construction and inspection costs. The

items identified in the 10-Year Plan for the bridges are based on bridge inspection

reports, and discussions with RITBA staff and the other engineering consultants

under contract to RITBA. The bridge inspections were performed by other

consultants to comply with the National Bridge Inspection Standards (NBIS).

While the NBIS require biennial inspection of bridges, RITBA conducts additional

inspections between the regular biennial inspections on a case-by-case basis. The

inspections include visual inspections of the entire structure, as well as hands-on

inspections of fracture critical members (tension members whose failure would

result in partial or total collapse of a span or structure).

Summary of Planned Work

The 10-Year Plan includes a total investment

over the next 10 years of $223 million. Item

lists are provided in the Appendix in which this

investment is organized into six major

categories. The investments for each category

are as follows:

Newport Pell Bridge: $116M

Mt. Hope Bridge: $ 52M

Jamestown Verrazzano Bridge: $ 27M

Sakonnet River Bridge: $ 14M

Facilities (buildings): $ 8M

RI 138 Connector Highway: $ 7M

As shown above and in the adjacent chart, the

majority of the planned investments included

in the 10-Year Plan is for work at the two large

suspension bridges. Approximately 75% of the total cost is for the Newport Pell and

Mount Hope Bridges, which is understandable given the size, complexity and age of

these structures.

The Jamestown Verrazzano and Sakonnet River Bridges represent approximately

18% of the total cost of anticipated work. The increase in required investment for

the Sakonnet River Bridge from the previous 10-Year Plan reflects the fact that the

Sakonnet River Bridge and related infrastructure will be 15 years old by the end of

the 10-Year period and will require capital improvement work.

The RI 138 connector highway and the various building facilities represent 7% of

the total cost of anticipated work.

Note that the 10 minor bridge structures, drainage systems and other ancillary

facilities have been grouped with one of the six categories above based on the type

of component, or their proximity to one of the major bridges.

NEWPORT/PELL BRIDGE


PAGE 5 OF 58

NEWPORT/PELL BRIDGE

The construction of the Newport/Pell Bridge began 1966

and the bridge was opened to traffic on June 28, 1969.

The total length of the bridge is 11,248 feet and the main

towers extend 400 feet above the water. The bridge has

a main span of 1,600 feet and two side spans of 687 feet

making it the longest suspension span bridge in New

England. The bridge carries the four lanes of Rhode

Island State Route 138 over the East Passage of

Narragansett Bay, between the Town of Jamestown on

Conanicut Island and City of Newport on Aquidneck

Island. The items listed under the Newport/Pell Bridge

heading also include work required for Structure “E”

which is the single span bridge carrying RI 138 over East

Shore Road in Jamestown.

Structures Included:

Newport/Pell Bridge Steel suspension bridge (total length of 11,248 feet)

Structure “E” Steel single span bridge (80 foot span)

As shown in the above chart, bridge deck repairs account for roughly 55% of the

anticipated outlays over the 10-year period. The extensive repairs are needed

because of the age of the deck, which is original to the bridge.

Approximately 30% of anticipated outlays include steel repairs, retrofits and

bearing replacements. The steel repairs and retrofits are part of ongoing repairs of

corrosion-related damage, and are common for a bridge of this type. The bearing

repairs are part of a planned upgrade to replace the original bearings with ones that

are capable of fully adhering to current bridge design requirements.

NEWPORT/PELL BRIDGE


PAGE 6 OF 58

Item 1 – Future Repairs/Minor Rehabilitation On-Call Contract

This item reflects an on-going, smaller scale repair program to address items

identified during routine bridge inspections that should not wait until a larger

repair program is put in place. This item also includes smaller scale test programs

and studies that will inform the Authority on the best approach when designing

larger scale repair programs.

Examples of the type of work covered by this item include:

Perform a fatigue evaluation on the fracture critical and fatigue sensitive

details in the girder spans and deck truss spans.

Replacement of heavily worn tower wind lock pin block bronze wearing

plates.

Item 2 – Development of Asset Management Program

RITBA has embarked on developing an agency wide asset management program to

ensure efficient maintenance of all of the Authority’s structures and facilities. An

effective asset management program will provide savings to the Authority by

minimizing the number of larger restoration and rehabilitation projects required

throughout the life of the assets, and by extending the life of the Authority’s critical

and valuable assets. The program began in 2015 with a data gathering effort on the

Newport/Pell Bridge using LIDAR scanning technology and a pilot program for the

Authority’s landscaping work. RITBA currently plans to expand this program

incrementally each fiscal year, one facility at a time, and it will ultimately include all

of the roadways and facilities under RITBA’s stewardship.

Item 3 – Bridge Deck Evaluation (Concrete) and Full Depth Replacement

Maintaining the condition of the concrete bridge deck and riding surface is not only

important to the travelling public, it is also essential to prevent premature

deterioration of the underlying floor system and substructure. The condition of the

bridge deck is under constant assault from heavy truck loads, high traffic volumes

and the deicing salts used to make the roads safe during the winter months.

The work included in the early years for this item involves condition monitoring

NEWPORT/PELL BRIDGE


PAGE 7 OF 58

and testing of the concrete deck, which will include evaluation of the need for full-

depth deck replacement. Full-depth deck replacement is anticipated to be needed

for portions of the bridge near the end of the 10-year plan period. The condition

monitoring and testing program has been in place for decades and forms the basis

of determining the appropriate types and level of repairs required to best prolong

the life of the concrete bridge deck. The program allows for the Authority to track

deterioration over time.

The deck on the approach girder and truss spans of the bridge consists of a cast-in-

place monolithic slab measuring 48’-0” wide curb to curb with two 3’-0” wide

concrete safety walks (54’-0” total concrete width). The deck in the suspended

spans consists of a cast-in-place monolithic slab measuring 48’-0” wide curb to

curb with two 3’-0” wide steel safety walks (48’-0” total concrete width). All

concrete decks are 7.5” thick.

The original concrete deck is over 45 years old and contains widespread patching

throughout. The deck has been continually inspected and repaired as part of

ongoing preventative maintenance to replace deteriorated areas. Items 3 to 7 in the

10-Year plan all function as important parts of the overall program to maximize the

service life of the concrete deck.

The evaluation aspects of this item include:

Targeted condition inspections using visual techniques to identify cracks

and open voids in the riding surface.

Mechanical sounding (hammer taps or chain drag) to discover hollow

areas.

Sampling and testing of chloride intrusion from deicing salts.

Evaluations are planned in the 2016-2017 and the 2018-2019 fiscal years.

Due to the advanced age of the concrete bridge deck, the first major full-depth

replacement of a segment of the bridge deck (3,000 LF) is anticipated to be

required towards the end of this 10-year plan. This work will be the first of series of

full-depth replacements that will eventually result in the replacement of the entire

bridge deck, most of which will occur beyond the 10-year period of this plan.

Item 4 – Bridge Deck Sealing (Concrete)

The top surface of the roadway deck generally breaks down first due to wear and

freeze-thaw damage, in combination with chloride intrusion (from deicing salt).

NEWPORT/PELL BRIDGE


PAGE 8 OF 58

With each winter season and the application road salt to keep the roadways safe for

driving, the chloride ions in the salt migrate further into the thickness of the

concrete deck through micro cracks. Eventually, the chloride ions reach the steel

reinforcement in the deck (generally 1½” below the top of concrete) and combined

with water, cause the reinforcement steel to oxidize. As the steel corrodes, it

expands, leading to more concrete cracking and more pathways for the chloride

ions and water to penetrate deeper into the concrete deck. As the extent of cracking

increases, more water is able to fill the cracks and during the winter this water can

freeze and expand within the concrete causing the cracks to expand further.

Eventually, the cracks expand to a size and depth where concrete breakouts or

spalls develop.

Bridge deck sealers, designed specifically for this purpose, prevent chloride ions

and water from entering the concrete. The Newport/Pell Bridge deck has been

sealed several times since the late 1980s, the last application in 2012. The bridge

deck should be cleaned and re-sealed every 5 - 7 years to maintain this important

protection. The next scheduled application is 2019-2020.

Item 5 – Bridge Deck Slab Partial Depth Rehabilitation (Hydro-demolition) (Concrete)

As explained under the previous item, the top layers of the roadway deck generally

break down first due to wear and freeze-thaw damage, in combination with chloride

intrusion. Partial depth rehabilitation removes the top 2” to 3½” of deteriorated

concrete using high-pressure water to expose the top layer of steel reinforcement.

The process removes the unsound, chloride contaminated concrete and provides a

suitable bonding surface to receive the new concrete. This method of repair is only

suitable when the chloride contamination is limited to the top few inches of the

deck. If high chloride levels exist throughout the full depth of concrete, a more

costly and disruptive full-depth replacement of the slab is typically required.

In 2000, 800 feet of the west approach roadway deck underwent partial depth

rehabilitation. The 10-Year Plan includes partial depth rehabilitation of the bridge

deck spread over three different fiscal years. Currently, WSP | Parsons

Brinckerhoff, under Contract 15-16, is conducting the deck evaluation, repair

location identification, and plan development for the next portion of deck to receive

partial depth rehabilitation. The first year of partial depth rehabilitation is

scheduled to occur in 2016-2017.

NEWPORT/PELL BRIDGE


PAGE 9 OF 58

Item 6 – Bridge Deck Patching Roadway/Approaches (Concrete)

The patch type repair of the surface spalls on the concrete deck is an on-going

annual program to maintain a safe driving surface and prolong the life of the deck.

The program includes the repair of visually apparent deficiencies (primarily surface

spalls) and a pro-active approach where sounding (hammer taps or chain drag

methods) is used to identify and repair incipient spalls. This annual program, along

with the sealing of the bridge deck (Item 4), has been instrumental in preserving

the concrete and extending the useful life of the deck.

Item 7 – Bridge Deck Joint and Header Repairs (Concrete)

The bridge deck expansion joints allow for the control of temperature movement by

separating sections of a bridge deck into smaller units. They allow each section of

the bridge to expand with temperature rise, and contract with temperature fall.

Bridges undergo expansion and contraction with daily temperature fluctuations

and with the seasonal changes of temperature. The types of joints used vary based

on the anticipated range of movement expected. The larger the distance between

joints, the larger the joint opening needs to be. The Newport/Pell Bridge has a

variety of expansion joint types depending on movement required. The longer

suspension and truss spans use finger-type joints, which can facilitate up to several

feet of movement. The shorter girder, prestressed concrete and multi-stringer spans

use compression and strip seal joints, which facilitate an inch or so of movement.

The bridge deck construction joints allow for the control of concrete shrinkage

when the concrete is first placed and cured. Construction joints are narrower and

are located based on concrete placement limitations.

All joints on the Newport/Pell Bridge experience significant wear from the vehicles

crossing the bridge, especially heavy trucks. The rate of deterioration increases

when heavy trucks pass over uneven expansion joints. Unevenness from one side of

the joint to the other causes impact forces resulting from the repeated pounding of

the heavy truck wheels. This damages the concrete headers on the sides of the joint.

Uneven joints are also one of the leading sources of vibration and noise in the

structure and they affect the ride comfort.

This item includes partial depth and full depth repairs, replacement of joint seals

NEWPORT/PELL BRIDGE


PAGE 10 OF 58

and drainage troughs underneath the finger joints.

Contract 08-4 included the replacement of the joint seals and partial depth header

repairs at various locations throughout the full length of the bridge. Contract 12-1

included addition joint repairs, and a recent change order included additional joint

repairs that are currently ongoing. Joint repairs are anticipated to be performed

over the next two years, and then again over three years from 2021-2024.

Item 8 – Realignment of West Approach Roadway Pavement (Asphalt)

The recent changes to incorporate open road tolling at the Jamestown Toll Plaza

have created new driving patterns as drivers negotiate the various lane options that

now exist (high speed open road toll lanes, cash or E-Z Pass lanes, and E-Z Pass

only lanes). Drivers navigating through the plaza also need to decide whether to

remain on the RI 138 connector highway, or exit to local roads.

The driver decision-making in the plaza area is also more challenging for

westbound drivers approaching the plaza from the Newport/Pell Bridge because the

sight distance is less than ideal. This is because the roadway follows a curved

alignment that flares out just before the plaza. The curve reduces the driver’s view

of the toll plaza and toll plaza signage, preventing drivers from making lane choices

prior to entering the toll plaza area. This creates potential safety issues, especially

for trucks, which require more distance to react. This item is intended to address

this situation by realigning the westbound roadway between the west approach of

the Newport/Pell Bridge and the toll plaza. This item is scheduled for 2021-2022.

This work will be performed in conjunction with Item 9 – Structure “E”

Superstructure Replacement and Widening.

Item 9 – Structure "E" Superstructure Replacement and Widening

Structure “E” is located within the west approach between the toll plaza and the

Newport/Pell Bridge. It is a single span steel multi-girder bridge with a composite

concrete deck constructed in 1969. The superstructure of the bridge is scheduled for

replacement and widening during the 10-Year Plan period. It is expected that the

abutments will undergo repairs and modifications at this time to facilitate the new

NEWPORT/PELL BRIDGE


PAGE 11 OF 58

superstructure. The work under this item will be coordinated with Item 8 to

improve the alignment of the roadway over the bridge.

Photo 1- View of Structure E

Item 10 – Removal of Loose Haunches (Combine with Appropriate Contracts) (Concrete)

The bridge stringers (smaller longitudinal beams spanning between transverse

floorbeams) directly support the bridge deck. Typical slab-on-stringer bridges are

designed with a small space between the bottom of the slab and the top of the top

beam flanges that provides for tolerances and allows the top of deck to be set at the

proper grade. This space is typically filled with unreinforced concrete. This

unreinforced concrete is referred to as a “haunch”.

The haunches on the Newport/Pell Bridge extend past the edge of the stringer

roughly 3½”, and this portion of the haunches have been prone to cracking, and

many pieces have fallen off, creating a hazard. Loose haunches have been removed

over time as they are identified in the field.

The 10-Year Plan, as in the past years, includes a nominal cost for removing the

NEWPORT/PELL BRIDGE


PAGE 12 OF 58

haunches as repair work in areas throughout the bridge are performed and staging

is in place to provide access.

Item 11 – Concrete Repairs on Prestressed Beams, Piers, Abutments and Anchorages

Contract 12-1 included structural repairs to the piers. While no concrete repairs are

anticipated to be required in the next couple of years, signs of deterioration have

been observed, and these locations are expected to get progressively worse due to

the age of bridge, the saltwater environment, and typical freeze-thaw action during

the winter. Thus, it is expected that concrete repairs will be required by the middle

of the ten year period.

Item 12 – Placing Protective Concrete Jacketing on West Protection Cells

The Newport/Pell Bridge has cofferdam protection cells below the low point of

main suspension cables where the main cables enter the anchorages. The purpose

of the cofferdams is to prevent an errant ship from damaging the main cables. Each

of the protection cells are formed from three circular steel sheet piling cofferdams

filled with concrete and backfill material. Based on the 2012 underwater inspection,

the steel on the east collision cells typically have approximately 1/8” thickness loss

throughout, with areas of 1/4” loss, due to corrosion. The steel on the west

protection cells typically have 1/16”–1/8” section loss throughout. In 1997, the east

and west cells were repaired. The east cells were jacketed with concrete and the

west cells received a special protective coat in the splash zone near the waterline.

The 10-Year Plan includes installation of a concrete jacket at the west protection

cells in 2018-2019.

Item 13 – Painting of Steel Superstructure

The 10-Year Plan includes painting of the west approach spans in 2016-2017 and

painting of the towers, suspender ropes and main cables in 2020-2021 and 2021-

2022. The effective life of any paint system depends on a variety of factors ranging

from the quality of the surface preparation, the quality/appropriateness of the paint

system used on the steel, the environment, and the effectiveness of the drainage

system of the bridge deck. Painted steel located near failing or open deck joints will

have a shortened life when compared to areas of the bridge not subject to roadway

NEWPORT/PELL BRIDGE


PAGE 13 OF 58

storm runoff or areas that can quickly dry after wetting.

Contract 09-1A (2011-2012) included the full blast-removal of the paint on the

suspended span and replacement with a three coat paint system. Contract 11-1

(2013-2015) included the full blast-removal of paint on the east approach spans and

replacement with a three-coat paint system.

There is no single maintenance activity more critical than maintaining an effective

coating system on the steel. Once the coating is breached, steel corrosion will

commence rapidly due to the corrosive environment the bridge is located in. If not

corrected in a timely manner, section loss will result and steel repairs will be

required to maintain the structural integrity and load-carrying capacity of the

structure.

Item 14 – Steel Superstructure Repairs/Retrofits

The 2014 and 2015 inspection reports identified steel deficiencies and

recommended repairs. Many of the recommended repairs for the east approach

spans were completed under Contract 11-1. These include repairs to floorbeam

brackets, knee braces, bottom flanges and webs. Other recommended work that was

performed under Contract 11-1 included repairs to the steel deck truss, stringer

webs and flanges.

Similar repairs are scheduled to be performed in conjunction with the 2016-2017

west approach painting project. Steel repairs will also be required in conjunction

with the 2020-2021/2021-2022 painting of the towers, suspender ropes and main

cables.

Item 15 – Main Cable Unwrapping, Inspection, Testing & Repairs

The main cables are among the most important structural components of the bridge

because they are the primary load path and they are non-redundant structural

members. They are also relatively difficult to inspect and repair. Their condition

cannot be fully assessed without unwrapping and wedging-open the strands to

inspect the individual wires. Following the inspection, the cable at each inspection

location must be compacted, rewrapped and painted.

Under Contract 06-7 (2007), Parsons Brinckerhoff (Design and Construction

NEWPORT/PELL BRIDGE


PAGE 14 OF 58

Engineering Support) and Maguire Group Inc. (Resident Engineer) oversaw the

unwrapping, wedging-open, targeted inspection, rewrapping and painting of the

cables. Nine panel locations were investigated with favorable results.

The 10-Year Plan includes another round of unwrapping and inspection in 2017-

2018. A main cable repair program will be planned based on the results of the

inspection.

Item 16 – Bearing Replacements

The rocker bearings supporting the trusses, girders and prestressed beams were

state of the art when the bridge was constructed. However, it is now known that this

type of bearing performs poorly during seismic events. Also, there are numerous

bearings, especially in the Newport/Pell Bridge’s prestressed beam approach spans

that have become “frozen” and are not functioning as designed. The 10-Year Plan

includes the estimated cost of replacing these bearings between 2018-2019 and

2021-2022 with modern bearings that are capable of meeting current design code

requirements.

Item 17 – Median Barrier Maintenance

The original Median Barrier Installation (Contract 14-12) included a service

agreement to maintain (clean, repaint guide-lines, and perform minor repairs), and

replace damaged barrier segments until 2020. After the initial 4-year maintenance

period, the cost of maintenance and repair of the barrier becomes an ongoing cost

to RITBA. The 10-Year Plan reflects this cost starting in 2020-2021. The

expectation is that, on average, five barrier segments will need to be replaced

yearly. The Authority currently has 50 spare segments that will likely need to be

replenished at the end of the 10-year period.

NEWPORT/PELL BRIDGE


PAGE 15 OF 58

Photo 2 - View of the Deck and Median Barrier on the Newport Pell Bridge

Item 18 – Rocker Bearing Repairs/Resetting

The rocker bearings that support the bridge must be reset periodically to correct

misalignment or to release any “frozen” bearings. If bearings are not reset, tilting

beyond a safe degree could occur, which could possibly lead to the overturning of a

bearing. The 10-Year Plan includes the estimated cost of resetting select bearings in

2016-2017 to maintain safety until the bearings are eventually replaced with

modern bearings under Item 16 - Bearing Replacements.

Item 19 – Update As-Built and As-Inspected Load Ratings

The bridge load rating is an analysis that informs the Authority of the truck load-

carrying capacity of the structure. The rating analysis provides the controlling

capacity for the bridge, as well as the rating of each individual element (e.g. deck,

stringers, floorbeams, truss members, suspender cables, etc.). The load rating

analysis is updated as required to reflect changes in capacity due to damage and

deterioration, and also whenever modifications are made that may result in

additional dead loads or geometry not accounted for in the previous ratings. Load

NEWPORT/PELL BRIDGE


PAGE 16 OF 58

ratings are also an important consideration when prioritizing repair projects since

the load carrying capacity of the structure is of utmost importance.

The 10-Year plan includes funding to update the existing load rating analysis to

account for the changes that have occurred since the last load rating revision.

Information gathered during the routine inspections, along with additional targeted

inspections, would be used to develop the updated ratings.

Note that the current as-built and as-inspected load ratings were computed using

the Load Factor methodology. The current preferred method of load rating, LRFR -

Load and Resistance Factor Rating, should be considered in future load ratings. The

as-built rating would be updated at this time to allow for comparisons to be made

between the original condition of the bridge and the current condition of the bridge.

Item 20 – Restriping

Roadway lane striping generally needs to be renewed every five years. The

Authority does not own the equipment to remove and apply striping and contracts

out this work. Thus, this item is included in the plan for this work.

Item 21 – Signs and Cameras Upgrades

The condition of the roadway signage is routinely assessed. As signs deteriorate due

to age, or become damaged, they are replaced and updated to meet the current sign

design standards. Similarly, the existing security cameras will need to be replaced

as they age and as technology improves.

Item 22 – Miscellaneous Maintenance & Repairs

This item includes capital projects not covered in the above descriptions that are

beyond general maintenance items.

MOUNT HOPE BRIDGE


PAGE 17 OF 58

MOUNT HOPE BRIDGE

The construction of the Mount Hope Bridge began

December 16, 1927 and the bridge was opened to traffic

October 24, 1929. The bridge consists of the main three-

span suspension bridge with steel girder approach spans on

each end. The total length of the bridge is 6,130 feet, and

the suspension span towers extend 285 feet above the

water. With a main span of 1,200 feet, the Mount Hope

Bridge was once the longest span bridge in New England.

As shown in the above chart, the main cable rehabilitation

and superstructure painting and steel repairs account for roughly 64% of the

anticipated outlays over the 10-year period, which is common for a bridge of this

type and age. The next largest outlay, at roughly 24%, is for concrete deck repair

and pavement replacement. The bridge deck was last replaced in 1986.


Mount Hope Bridge Steel suspension bridge (total length of 6,130 feet)

Item 1 –Deck and Miscellaneous Concrete Repairs (16-7)

The Mount Hope Bridge’s narrow roadway (one travel lane in each direction)

intensifies the importance of having an effective deck maintenance program

because of the difficulty of maintaining traffic during construction activities. The

deck maintenance program extends the life of the bridge, avoiding the need for a far

more expensive complete deck replacement. Also, during complete deck

replacements, the bridge must either be taken out of service or have long term lane

closures that would result in significant delays and/or detours.

MOUNT HOPE BRIDGE


PAGE 18 OF 58

The last time the Mount Hope Bridge had a complete deck replacement was in 1986

(30 years ago). The bridge was closed for 5 months during the project and the

resulting traffic detour added up to 25 miles and 40 minutes to someone

commuting between Bristol and Portsmouth.

The roadway deck consists of a 4-1/4” steel grid filled with concrete and a 2”

overfill. A layer of rubberized asphaltic chip seal wearing surface has been placed

over the concrete. The chip seal was last replaced under the On-Call Maintenance

Contract 09-7 and is in Fair to Satisfactory condition based on the 2014 Inspection

Report.

This project (16-7) will include routine concrete deck patching and prototype

testing: the installation of various deck materials in larger areas as experimental

test beds to determine the most effective materials for a future wearing surface

replacement. The project will also include the replacement of the concrete approach

slab at the south approach and south anchorage concrete repairs.

Item 2 – On-Call Miscellaneous Repairs


identified during the bridge inspections that should not wait until a larger repair

program is put in place. This item also includes smaller scale test programs and

studies that will inform the Authority on the best approach when designing larger

scale repair programs.

Examples of the types of repairs, as recommended in the 2014 Inspection Report,

which could be made under this item include:

Repair spalls and seal cracks in concrete pedestals.

Monitor and assess movement of damaged anchor bolts at Pier 1 and the

bearing at Pier 3.

Repair/seal spalls and cracks in the deck soffit of the main and approach

spans.

Item 3 – Suspended Span Miscellaneous Repair

The 2014 inspection report noted that the suspended span stringers, floorbeams

and stiffening trusses are generally in good condition with areas of peeling paint,

surface corrosion and crevice corrosion between connected steel plates. The report

identified specific stiffening truss deficiencies and recommended repairs. This item

would address the more significant issues identified in this report.






throughout the life of the assets and by extending the life of the Authority’s critical


Newport Bridge using LIDAR scanning technology and pilot program for the

Authority’s landscaping work. The program will be expanded during each fiscal

year, one bridge at a time, and will ultimately include all of the roadways and

facilities.

MOUNT HOPE BRIDGE


PAGE 20 OF 58

Item 5 – Roadway Deck - Remove Concrete Overfill & Replace with Pavement

The roadway deck consists of a 4-1/4” deep concrete-filled steel grid with a 2” thick

concrete overfill, and a rubberized asphaltic chip seal. The last major deck

replacement was completed in 1986. This scope of work will include the removal of

the chip seal; the 2” overfill layer and any loose concrete material within the filled

grid deck down to solid material. The top layers of the roadway deck generally

break down first due to roadway salt intrusion. Targeted deck samples (cores) will

be taken and tested as part of the design process to assess the level of chloride ion

intrusion.

Item 6 – Superstructure Painting, Steel Repairs & Catwalk Repairs (South Approach) (16-6)

The last complete bridge superstructure painting occurred in 1991. Since that time

the following superstructure painting has occurred:

The South and North Approach span bents were painted in 2002.

The South Approach girders from spans 1 to 10, and the first 40 feet of span

11, was blast-cleaned and painted in 2006.

The North Approach girders were blast-cleaned and painted under Contract

10-11.

The scope of work under this item will be similar to Contract 10-11 for the North

Approach. Examples of repairs as recommended in the 2014 Inspection Report

include:

Re-seal the main cable portals, and complete repairs to concrete defects that

were not performed under Contract 08-1.

Clean, paint, and caulk the main cable shrouds.

Repair deficiencies at the steel bents.

Item 7 – Main Cable Painting/ Cable Band Caulking/ Suspender Rope Painting

The main cables are among the most important structural components of the bridge

because they are the primary load path and they are non-redundant structural

MOUNT HOPE BRIDGE


PAGE 21 OF 58

members. They are also relatively difficult to inspect and repair. Their condition

cannot be fully assessed without unwrapping and wedging-open the strands to

inspect the individual wires. Following the inspection, the cable at each location is

compacted, rewrapped and painted. In 2015, consulting firm Ammann and

Whitney (Design and Construction Engineering Support) and Keville Enterprises

(Resident Engineer) oversaw the unwrapping, wedging-open, targeted inspection,

rewrapping and painting of the strands as part of Contract 15-6.

The last main cable rehabilitation occurred between 1999 and 2001 (suspended

spans) and 1995 (backstays).

Maintaining the structural integrity of the main cables requires keeping moisture

out of the main cable system. Water can infiltrate through the paint system barrier

on the cable wrapping and can also enter through defects in the caulked joints

around the edges of the cable bands that connect the suspender ropes to the main

cable.

This item involves the replacement of deteriorated and aging caulking material

around the perimeter of the cable bands, and the surface preparation/painting of

the main cables. The item also includes the painting of the suspender ropes.

Item 8 – Main Cable Rehabilitation and Dehumidification, and New Anchorage Dehumidification System

These items are included in plan to increase the lifespan of critical elements of the

bridge. As discussed above under Item 7, the main cables are vitally important non-

redundant structural members, and the presence of moisture within the system

shortens the life-span of these components. Each main cable on the Mt. Hope

Bridge contains 2,450 individual wires bundled in 7 strands of 350 parallel wires.

The galvanized (zinc coated) wires are standard No. 6 gauge (0.196” diameter).

There are a variety of contributing factors leading to main cable corrosion and

eventual loss of strength. The process typically starts with the breakdown of the zinc

coating on the individual wires due to the reaction between infiltrated water and

atmospheric pollutants. Once the zinc protective coating is damaged, corrosion

develops and weakens the wires. The high strength steel used for the cable wire is

relatively brittle and prone to breaking if there is loss of section due to corrosion.

Additionally, a phenomenon known as “hydrogen embrittlement” can occur

MOUNT HOPE BRIDGE


PAGE 22 OF 58

whereby hydrogen atoms defuse into the steel affecting the molecular bonds of the

steel, resulting in increased brittleness. These conditions can lead to breaking of

individual wires, even under normal stress levels.

Main cable rehabilitation typically involves the unwrapping of the cable, wedging

the cables apart and pouring in specially formulated oil to protect the wires from

further corrosion. Rehabilitation also typically includes the splicing of replacement

wires when broken or heavily corroded wires are uncovered.

Main cable dehumidification is a new process used to create a dry-state

environment within the cable system through an active means. The system injects

dried air into the cable’s sealed enclosure and into the void space between the

individual wires. The injected dried air absorbs the water trapped within the

wrapped cable system and is evacuated through exhaust ports. Research has shown

that maintaining the relative humidity to a level below 60% dramatically reduces

corrosion and lowering it further to 40% reduces corrosion to negligible rates.

Similarly, anchorage dehumidification systems regulate the moisture levels of the

strands within the anchorages to prevent further corrosion of the cable wires at this

critical attachment point. Note that a dehumidification system for the Newport/Pell

bridge anchorages was installed in 2007 under Contract 05-12.

MOUNT HOPE BRIDGE

Item 9 – Environmental Remediation

The Authority retained environmental consultant ATC Group Services Inc. in 2014-

2015 to investigate possible lead contamination in the soil around the northern

approach of the Mount Hope Bridge. The contaminated soil found should be

removed from the site and replaced with clean soil. This work is scheduled to occur

in the upcoming 2016-2017 fiscal year.

Photo 4- Area beneath the North Approach Spans of the Mount Hope Bridge

Item 10 – Road and Facility Infrastructure Upgrades

This item includes miscellaneous projects not covered in the above descriptions

that are beyond general maintenance repairs.





MOUNT HOPE BRIDGE


PAGE 24 OF 58

Item 12 – Tower Painting/North Approach Pier Painting

The bridge towers were last painted in 2006 and 2007 under Contract 05-11. The

north approach steel bents were last painted in 2002. The 10-Year Plan includes the

estimated painting costs in 2022-2023.

Item 13 – North Approach Roadway Milling and Paving

The north approach roadway between the intersection of Rhode Island State Route

114 and Old Ferry Road and the north abutment of the Mount Hope Bridge was last

milled and repaved over 10 year ago. The 10-Year Plan includes the estimated cost

of milling, paving and repairing drainage systems along this roughly 1,000 foot

length of the roadway.

Item 14 – Electronic Signage/ Electrical Upgrades

The Newport/Pell Bridge is the only RITBA bridge that has permanent variable

electronic messaging and speed limit signs. The electronic messaging signs can be

used to warn drivers of traffic congestion, accidents, ongoing roadwork and weather

advisories. Electronic speed limit signs allow for the speed to be changed based on

road, traffic or weather conditions.

The 10-Year Plan includes the estimated cost of installing a permanent variable

electronic messaging and speed limit sign system at the Mt. Hope Bridge. The new

system will be controlled from the Jamestown headquarters.

Item 15 – Security Cameras/ Weather Station

In conjunction with Item 14 – Electronic Signage/ Electrical Upgrades, the

Authority intends to install a weather station at the bridge to provide real-time

weather information, along with security cameras to increase safety on and around

the bridge.

SAKONNET RIVER BRIDG E


PAGE 25 OF 58

SAKONNET RIVER BRIDGE

The Sakonnet River Bridge carries State Roads

RI24 and RI138 over the Sakonnet River between

the towns of Portsmouth and Tiverton, RI. The

current bridge was constructed in 2012 adjacent to

the original truss bridge, a portion of which

remains in place over the river. The new bridge

consists of ten spans and is 2,265 feet long. The

bridge has seven continuous main spans consisting

of trapezoidal steel box girders. There are two

approach spans on the Portsmouth end one in Tiverton. Each approach span is

made up of 10 New England Bulb “T” girders. In all spans, there is a reinforced

concrete deck made composite with the girders/beams with reinforced concrete

parapets and barriers. A bike path is carried on the north side of the bridge.

The projects listed under the Sakonnet River Bridge heading also include work to

the Evans Avenue Bridge which is the single span prestressed concrete spread box-

girder bridge over Evans Avenue in Tiverton, and the Hummocks Avenue Bridge

which is a shallow concrete arch bridge over Hummocks Avenue in Portsmouth.

As shown in the chart above, the largest outlay, at 30%, represents the expected

repairs to the concrete parapets and median barriers required to mitigate the

premature cracking that was identified during recent bridge inspections. The

remaining 70% represents a wide variety of improvements and repair projects.

Examples of repairs as recommended in the 2014 Inspection Report include:

Repair\replace lighting fixtures inside of trapezoidal box girders that are not

working.

Replace end diaphragm access screen bolts.

Install weep hole screens.

Install tie-off hooks at box girder access hatches.

Replace covers on open electrical junction boxes.

Repair/seal spalls and cracks in the pier caps.

Repair scupper connections to downspout pipes.



PAGE 27 OF 58

RITBA has embarked on developing an agency wide asset management

program to ensure efficient maintenance of all of the Authority’s structures and

facilities. An effective asset management program will provide savings to the

Authority by minimizing the number of larger restoration and rehabilitation

projects required throughout the life of the assets and by extending the life of

the Authority’s critical and valuable assets. The program began in 2015 with a

data gathering effort on the Newport Bridge using LIDAR scanning technology

and pilot program for the Authority’s landscaping work. The program will be

expanded during each fiscal year, one bridge at a time, and will ultimately

include all of the roadways and facilities.







PAGE 28 OF 58

Item 4 – Pavement Crack Sealing

The roadway pavement on the bridge consists of a bituminous overlay on top of the

concrete deck. The roadway pavement provides a smooth riding surface and also

protects the structural concrete roadway deck from intrusion of damaging roadway

de-icing salt. Sealing of the cracks in the roadway pavement helps to preserve the

life expectancy of the pavement and the underlying concrete deck. Pavement crack

sealing is scheduled to for 2016-2017 and every three years thereafter, to optimize

the life expectancy of the roadway and deck.

Item 5 – Concrete Deck Repairs

As described previously for the other bridges, the deck repair program is essential

for extending the life of the bridge deck and to avoid the need for a vastly more

expensive complete deck replacement. Also, during complete deck replacement, the

bridge must be either taken out of service or have lengthy lane closures that would

result in significant delays and/or detours. The deck repair program should be

anticipated approximately every 10 years. The 10-Year Plan includes the estimated

cost of concrete deck repairs in 2020-2021.

Item 6 – Roadway / Navigation Lighting – Repair and Replacement

The roadway lighting on the bridge is an essential safety feature that must be

maintained in proper working order at all times. Similarly, navigational lighting,

required by the US Coast Guard, must be maintained to ensure safety of the

waterway users. The basic navigational lighting demarcates the center of the

channel (green light) the edges of the channel (red lights). Routine repair and

replacement of deficient lighting components should be anticipated approximately

every 5 years. This item includes repairs beyond general maintenance. The 10-Year

Plan includes the estimated cost of lighting repair and replacement in 2018-2019

and in 2023-2024.



PAGE 29 OF 58

Photo 6 - Navigation Channel Light on the Sakonnet River Bridge

Item 7 – MSE Wall Maintenance

At both the Sakonnet River and the Evans Avenue bridges, mechanically stabilized

earth (MSE) retaining walls wrap around both abutments to support the approach

embankments. The MSE type retaining wall is a soil retaining system that uses

buried soil reinforcement straps to stabilize the retained fill. These straps are

connected to modular precast concrete panels that form the exposed vertical face of

the wall. As with all exposed concrete wall systems, deterioration and minor

settlement is expected over time.

This item includes repairs beyond general maintenance. The 10-Year Plan includes

the estimated cost of MSE wall maintenance starting in 2017-2018 and every 3

years thereafter to optimize the life expectancy of the walls.



PAGE 30 OF 58

Photo 7 - View of the MSE Wall on the Tiverton Side of the Sakonnet River Bridge

Item 8 – Security Features – Cameras & Fencing

This item is included to cover the cost of installing cameras and fencing to enhance

security at various locations along the bridge. The 10-Year Plan includes the

estimated costs of the initial equipment and fence installation in 2016-2017. In

anticipation of the ever-changing camera\security technologies, it is also expected

there will be a need to update this equipment periodically. Thus, additional costs

are included in the plan for the timeframe of 2023-2024.

Item 9 – Sign Maintenance

The condition of the roadway signage is routinely assessed. As signs deteriorate

with age, or become damaged, they are replaced and updated to the current sign

design standards.



PAGE 31 OF 58

Item 10 – Boat Ramp Maintenance

As part of the Sakonnet River Bridge construction, RIDOT constructed a boat ramp

and fishing pier below the bridge on the Tiverton side of the river. The 10-Year Plan

includes the estimated costs for the replacement of the floats in 2021-2022. The

plan also includes boat ramp maintenance items that are beyond general

maintenance. Examples of such repairs include concrete repairs, railing repairs,

sheet pile work and repairs to the piling.

Photo 8 - Boat Ramp in Tiverton under the Sakonnet River Bridge

Item 11 – Miscellaneous Site Work Repairs

This item is to address incomplete site work in the areas adjacent to, and

underneath, the Sakonnet River Bridge that was left over from the bridge

construction project. The 10-Year Plan includes anticipated order of magnitude

costs of repairs over a three year period between 2020 and 2023.



PAGE 32 OF 58

Item 12 – Detention Basin Cleaning / Disposal / Inspection

The area below and around the Sakonnet River Bridge includes two large detention

basins to manage storm water flows. The two basins, constructed as part of the

recent bridge construction, will require cleanouts roughly every 10 years. The 10-

Year Plan includes the estimated cost of the inspection and clean-out work in 2023-

2024. Detention basin cleaning, waste disposal and inspection are beyond the scope

of general maintenance.

Photo 9 - Detention Basin in Tiverton Adjacent to the Sakonnet River Bridge

Item 13 – Catch Basin & Drain Work

Connected to the two large detentions discussed under Item 12 above is a system of

catch basins and drainage pipes. General catch basin maintenance includes the

periodic cleaning of the permanent storage section at the bottom of the catch basin

below the outlet pipe which is intended to trap sediments, debris and other

particles that settle out of storm water. Based on experience with similar systems, it

is anticipated that additional work on this system beyond periotic cleaning will

eventually be required to address deterioration and damage. The 10-Year Plan

includes the estimated cost of this repair work in 2022-2023, which is

approximately 10 years after the date the system was installed.



PAGE 33 OF 58

Item 14 – Concrete Repairs – Barriers & Parapets

In November of 2015 consulting firm Ammann & Whitney

prepared a report for the Authority titled “New Sakonnet

River Bridge Parapet Crack Investigation”. The study

included identifying sources of the premature barrier and

parapet cracking that has been observed, and it provided

recommendations for short and long term repairs. The

following summarizes their findings:

The new Sakonnet River Bridge parapet cracking seems to be the result of the use of the wrong concrete mix design, inadequate and improper curing and finishing techniques performed/utilized by the contractor, and a lack of stringent construction inspection enforcement. Without a dedicated effort by the owner to repair the existing cracks and perform maintenance as new cracks form, the parapets will exhibit accelerated

deterioration. However, with the implementation of long term maintenance plan that is adhered to, these issues can be lessened and managed.

The short term recommendations included repairing all wide cracks using the

injection method with an epoxy-type material that will remain flexible. There are

hairline (very fine) cracks throughout the parapets and barriers that are too tight

for an injection type repair. To address this condition, the entire surface of the

exposed concrete should be sealed with a penetrating low-viscosity sealant.

Because the injection repairs will result in a very unappealing appearance (that

appears cracked) a coating should to be applied over the entire surface area to

provide a uniform appearance.

In the long term, it is expected that additional cracking will occur in these

components and they require more frequent repairs than would normally be

expected for a bridge of this age.

The 2017 10-Year Plan includes the estimated costs of concrete repairs in 2016-

2017 and 2021-2022.

Photo 10 - Crack in Parapet



PAGE 34 OF 58

Item 15 – Weather Station

This item is for adding a weather station to the bridge to provide real-time weather

information. This data helps the Authority make informed weather-related

decisions to maximize the safety of the roadway.

Item 16 – Bike Path Pavement

Replacement of the pavement of the bike path is anticipated to be required during

the 10-year period of the plan. At the portions of the path that are carried by the

Sakonnet and Evans Ave. bridges, the bike path pavement consists of a bituminous

overlay on top of the reinforced concrete bridge deck. The portions of the bike path

between the bridges consist of full-depth bituminous concrete.

Item 17 – Other / Contingency

This item includes projects not covered in the above descriptions that are beyond

general maintenance items.

Item 18 – Parking Lots – Overlay Pavement

The parking areas below the Sakonnet River Bridge that serves the boat ramp and

maintenance building will likely require a repaving within the 10-year period

covered by the plan.

JAMESTOWN VERRAZZANO BRIDGE


PAGE 35 OF 58


The Jamestown Verrazzano Bridge carries RI 138 over the

West Passage of Narragansett Bay between the towns of

North Kingstown and Jamestown. The bridge opened to

traffic in 1992 and the total structure length is 7,353 feet

long including the main structure (4,950 feet), and a

trestle structure (2,403 feet). The main structure has 23

spans comprised of a single double-celled post-tensioned

concrete trapezoidal box girder that is separated into the

west and east approach spans (1 to 11 and 15 to 23) and

the main spans (spans 12 to 14). Three types of

construction techniques were utilized during the concrete box construction; shored

cast-in-place construction (spans 1, 20 and 23), precast segmental that were lifted

into place (spans 2 to 11 and spans 15 to 19), and balanced cantilever that were cast-

in-place (spans 12 to 14). The trestle structure has 29 spans that are comprised of

AASHTO Type IV prestressed girders arranged in four span continuous units.


Jamestown Verrazzano

Bridge

Multi-span post-tensioned concrete box girder bridge

with pre-stressed concrete trestle approach (total length

of 7,353 ft.)

As shown in the above chart, the various structural repairs represent roughly 27%

of the anticipated outlays over the 10-year period. Inspections and ratings make up

21% of the investment required.

Pedestrian and crash rail system repairs and painting represent roughly 19% of the

anticipated outlays over the 10-year period. The amount is due to the large total

length of railing on the bridge and the fact that the paint system currently on the



PAGE 36 OF 58

railings is original to the bridge.

Approximately 17% of anticipated outlays involves scour repairs and scour

protection. It should be noted that a higher degree of clarity regarding the scope of

this work will be possible following completion of the 2016 underwater inspection.

The bridge load rating is an analysis that informs the Authority of the truck load-

carrying capacity of the structure. The rating analysis provides the controlling

capacity for the bridge, as well as the rating of each individual element (e.g. deck,



PAGE 37 OF 58

pre-stressed concrete beams and concrete boxes). The load rating analysis is

updated as required to reflect changes in capacity due to damage and deterioration,

and also whenever modifications are made that may result in additional dead loads

or geometry not accounted for in the previous ratings. Load ratings are also an

important consideration when prioritizing repair projects since the load carrying

capacity of the structure is of utmost importance.

The 10-Year plan includes funding to update the existing load rating analysis to

account for the changes that have occurred since the last load rating revision.

Information gathered during the routine inspections, along with additional targeted

inspections, would be used to develop the updated ratings.





Item 5 – Carbon Wrap Repairs (Trestle Structure)

The ends of the pre-stressed concrete girder bottom flanges exhibit spalls with

exposed and corroded rebar. This condition is typically located at the joint

locations, but is not limited to these locations. The typical girder bottom flange end

repair involves removing loose concrete, cleaning the exposed reinforcement, filling

the spall areas with non-shrink mortar and applying mastic and fiber wrap around

the cracked areas of the girder. This work is scheduled every 5 years and the next

repairs are scheduled to begin in 2018-2019.



PAGE 38 OF 58

Item 6 – Security Features

Cameras and fencing may be installed on the bridge to enhance security at various

locations along the bridge. The current schedule has the security measures being

installed in 2021.

Item 7 – Signs

The condition of the roadway signage is routinely assessed. As signs deteriorate due

to age, or become damaged, they are replaced using the current sign standards.

Item 8 – Survey Profile / PT Additions Shrinkage & Creep

Concrete cracking identified in the 2015 inspection suggests that the bridge is still

undergoing long-term deformations due to creep and shrinkage, which is expected

for this structure type. Thus, the plan includes preforming an updated topometric

survey, which was last completed in 2006. Past surveys have shown there is

consistency with the theoretical long-term creep deflection predictions. These

predictions should be compared to new surveys as they are performed.

Item 9 – Navigation Lighting Repair

Functioning navigation lighting is essential to ensure the safety of vessels on the

waterway. The basic required lighting demarcates the center of the channel (green

light), and the edges of the channel (red lights). Routine repair and replacement of

deficient lighting components is anticipated every 5 years.

There are five (5) navigation lights along both the north and south sides of the

bridge in Span 13. Several of the lights have been replaced in the past and other are

original to the bridge. This item includes repairs beyond general maintenance. The

10-Year Plan includes the estimated cost of lighting repair and replacement in

2020-2021.

Item 10 – Weather Station

This item is for adding a weather station to the bridge to provide real-time weather



PAGE 39 OF 58

information. This data helps the Authority make informed weather-related

decisions to maximize the safety of the roadway.

Item 11 – Deck Sealing (Concrete)

The top layers of the roadway deck generally break down first due to deicing salt

intrusion. With each winter season and the addition of more road salt to keep the

roadways safe for driving, the chloride ions in the salt migrate further into the

thickness of the concrete deck through micro cracks. Eventually the chloride ions

reach the level of the steel reinforcement and post tensioning stands in the concrete

deck (generally 1½” below the top of deck concrete) and combined with water cause

the steel to corrode. As the steel corrodes it expands leading to more concrete

cracking and more pathways for the chloride ions and water to move deeper into

the concrete deck. As the level of cracking increases more water is able to fill the

cracks and during the winter this water can freeze and expand within the concrete

causing the cracks to expand further. Eventually, the cracks expand to a level where

concrete spalls may develop along with potential for failure of the steel

reinforcement and post tensioning strands.

Bridge deck sealers, designed specifically for this purpose, prevent the flow of

chloride ions and water from entering the concrete. The Jamestown Verrazzano

Bridge deck should be cleaned and re-sealed every 5 years to maintain this

important protective layer. The next scheduled application is 2018-2019.

Item 12 – Deck Patching Roadways/Approaches

This item consists of patching all spalls and hollow/deteriorated areas of the

concrete wearing surface on both the main and trestle structure with an impervious,

durable mortar. The main structure is of particular importance in order to prevent

deterioration of the embedded steel post-tensioning stands in the deck.

Item 13 – Joint Repairs

The bridge deck expansion joints allow for the control of temperature movements

by dividing up larger sections of a bridge into smaller units. They allow each section

of the bridge to expand with temperature rise, and contract with temperature fall.

Bridges undergo expansion and contraction with daily temperature fluctuations

and with the seasonal changes of temperature. The types of joints used vary based



PAGE 40 OF 58

on the anticipated range of movement at each location. The greater the distance

between joints, the larger the joint opening needs to be. The Jamestown Verrazzano

Bridge has a variety of expansion joints. The longer box girders use finger joints to

facilitate several inches to a foot or more of movement. The AASHTO Type IV

prestressed girders use strip-seal joints to facilitate a few inches or so of movement.

The expansion joints on the Jamestown Verrazzano Bridge experience significant

wear from the vehicles crossing the bridge, particularly from heavy trucks. Any

unevenness from one side of the joint to the other allows for impact damage from

the repeated pounding of the heavy truck wheels leading to the breakup of the

header concrete in the close vicinity of the joint opening.

This item includes partial depth and full depth repairs or replacement of joint seals

and drainage troughs beneath the finger joints. Joint repairs are scheduled in 2018-

2019 and then again in 2023-2024.

Photo 11 - View of Finger Joint

Item 14 – Concrete Spall Repairs (Piers and Bents)

This item is required to maintain the structural integrity of the reinforced concrete

substructure. At a minimum, the item includes concrete spall repairs, which is the

replacement of concrete break-outs on the surfaces of the piers/bents. In addition

to concrete spall repair, areas of delaminated concrete must also be identified and



PAGE 41 OF 58

repaired by sounding the surface of the piers/bents. Concrete spall repairs are

scheduled to begin in 2018-2019.

The following are examples of repairs that could be addresses by this item, as

recommended in the 2015 Inspection Report:

Repair all cracks, spalls and hollow areas at the concrete bearing pads and

plinths.

Repair the spall with exposed rusted rebar at the top of Pier #11 adjacent to

the north bearing.

Repair the hollow and spalled areas throughout several columns, as well as

the top of the pile caps throughout the main structure.

Patch the spalls and spalled grout pads at the base of the pier rail posts.

Also, ensure the anchor bolts are secure and do not require replacement due

to corrosion damage.

Item 15 – Pier Protective Granite Panels

Granite panels are installed on the footings of Piers #1 through #20 to help protect

the concrete against the effects of freeze-thaw cycles and to add architectural detail.

The granite panels have scattered hairline cracks, minor chips up to ½” deep and

areas of rust staining caused by corrosion of the panel anchor bolts. There are also

scattered areas of missing or loose lead wool joint material between the panels

allowing water to penetrate between the granite panels and the concrete footings.

Repair or replacement of the deficient granite panels is scheduled to begin in 2023-

2024.

Item 16 – Joint Replacement (Trestle Spans Only)

The trestle spans have expansion joints at Piers #1, #5, #13, #17, #21 and #25.

Currently all joints show small areas of torn joint material, and in addition, Piers

#5, #9, #13 and #17 have areas of missing rubber joint header material. The repair

or replacement of deficient trestle span joints is scheduled to occur in 2023-2024.

Item 17 – Deck Chloride Monitoring

A sampling and testing program is planned to assess the progression of chloride ion

penetration into the overlay and structural deck. A similar program was performed

in 2006, but new data is required to evaluate the progression of chloride

contamination. The latex-modified overlay has a limited service life and the



PAGE 42 OF 58

monitoring of chloride ion levels will be used with visual condition assessments to

determine when to replace the overlay.

Item 18 – Scour Repairs (Main Span)

Scour is the removal of sediment, such as soil, sand and rocks, around the

perimeter of the bridge piers due to movement of water around the piers. Severe

scour can lead to undermining and weakening of the bridge foundations. Scour is

monitored during the underwater inspections performed every 5 years. In addition

to routine underwater inspections, the Jamestown Verrazzano Bridge was equipped

with a scour monitoring system at the base of piers #12 and #13. However, the

monitoring system was partially removed during the demolition of the original

Jamestown Bridge to prevent damage to the system. Scour repairs are scheduled to

occur in 2017-2018, but the total extent of scour will not be known until the 2016

underwater inspection is completed. The work will include reinstalling the scour

monitoring system at piers #12 and #13 along with remediation of scour damage.

Item 19 – Concrete Crack Repairs to Superstructure (Main Structure)

This item is included to maintain the structural integrity of the concrete

superstructure. The trapezoidal concrete box girders require crack repairs on both

the inside and outside surfaces. This item includes repair of cracks by epoxy

injection and monitoring of crack growth and minor spall repairs. These repairs are

scheduled to occur in 2018-2019.

The following are examples of repairs which would fall within this item as


Repair all cracks greater than 0.006" wide throughout the exterior surfaces

of the box girders with epoxy injection.

Repair all cracks greater than 0.01” wide throughout the interior surfaces of

the box girders with epoxy injection.

Patch all various minor spalls and hollow areas throughout the exterior

surfaces of the box girders.

Monitor all cracks for growth, especially those greater than 0.006” wide.



PAGE 43 OF 58

Item 20 – Pedestrian and Crash Rail System Repairs & Painting

The pedestrian and vehicular crash rail systems are important safety features that

protect motorists and pedestrians using the bridge. Repair and painting of both the

pedestrian and crash rails are scheduled to begin in 2019-2020.

The following are examples of repairs that would be included under this item as


Repair the heavily corroded portions of the vehicular crash rails at the

Hinge #2 joint, as well as any other sections with impact damage.

Repair the corroded east approach timber vehicular crash rail attachment

bolts throughout the north and south approach rails.

Repair, replace and/or tighten loose pedestrian railing spindles, posts and

anchor bolts (on both the main structure and trestle structures).

Item 21 – West Abutment Area

The west abutment area refers to an area located south of the west approach in

North Kingstown that has been targeted for restoration to its previous natural state,

or to parkland. This area is where west approach roadway for the old Jamestown

Bridge was located. Since completion of the demolition of the old Jamestown

Bridge, this area has been unused. Revitalization of this area has been scheduled to

begin in 2020-2021.

RI 138 CONNECTOR HIGHWAY


PAGE 46 OF 58


The RI 138 connector highway comprises the stretch of

roadway and related infrastructure between the Route 1A

interchange in North Kingstown and the west approach of

the Newport/Pell Bridge. There is approximately 15 lane

miles of roadway in this stretch of RI 138.

Included in the related infrastructure are 7 bridges:

RI 138 over Fishing Pier

Access Road (North

anticipated repairs include a variety of projects related to the structures along the

roadway.





PAGE 47 OF 58








year, one bridge at a time, and will ultimately include all of the roadways and

facilities.

Item 2 – Restriping RT 138




Item 3 – Milling / Paving / Drainage Repairs

The RI 138 connector highway was opened to traffic in 1994 and was maintained by

RIDOT until it was transferred to RITBA in 2013. The roadway surface is in need of

renewal. Pavement milling removes the existing pavement in preparation for the

new pavement surface. The existing pavement that is removed generally goes

through a recycling process to be reused on another roadway.

Based on the existing pavement condition, the volume of roadway traffic, quality of

the existing material below the existing pavement and budget, a determination is

made as to the depth of existing pavement to be removed. Anywhere from just

enough material to level and prepare the pavement for a new surface, to a full-

depth removal of the pavement may be required. The amount of existing pavement

removal can vary along a stretch of roadway, as the condition of the roadway may

vary. An engineering study is the first step in determining the extent of pavement

removal required. During the engineering phase, the drainage systems will be

evaluated to make sure they are performing as intended. Any changes to the

drainage systems required to meet the current drainage needs of the area should be

performed prior to placing the new pavement. The 10-Year Plan includes the

estimated cost of milling and paving up to 3 miles of RI Route 138 in 2017-2018.



PAGE 48 OF 58

Photo 15- View of Route 138 in Jamestown

Item 4 – Pavement Crack Sealing - Route 138

Pavement crack sealing prolongs the life of roadway pavement by reducing paths of

entry for water to penetrate and collect below the pavement surface. Water that

collects below the pavement can lead to washouts, and in the winter months can

lead to deterioration of the pavement due to freeze-thaw action. The 10-Year Plan

includes the estimated cost of pavement crack sealing towards the end of the 10-

year period when the new pavement placed under Item 3 will likely begin to exhibit

cracking.

Item 5 – Milling/Paving/Drainage Repairs - Frontage Roads

The Authority is responsible for maintaining approximately 1 mile of access and

frontage roads that are alongside the RI 138 connector roadway. Tashtassuc Road

and a section of Beacon Street between Spindrift St. and RI 138 was last milled and

repaved in 2014. The 10-Year Plan includes the estimated cost of milling, paving

and repairing drainage systems along the frontage roads towards the end of the 10-

year period.



PAGE 49 OF 58

Item 6 – Pavement Crack Sealing - Frontage Roads

As described above under Item 4, pavement crack sealing prolongs the life of the

roadway. The 10-Year Plan includes the estimated cost of pavement crack sealing.

It is scheduled to occur 7 years after the most recent milling and pavement work.

Item 7 – Signage

The condition of the roadway signage is routinely assessed. As signs deteriorate

with age or become damaged, they are replaced and updated to the current sign

design standards.

Item 8 – Overhead Sign Structures

The large overhead sign structures (monopole and truss-type sign bridges) require

routine inspections to ensure they are structurally sound. Visual inspections of

welds, anchor rods, bolted connections and material for signs of fatigue and

corrosion is required. As sign support structures deteriorate with age or become

damaged they are replaced and updated to meet current design code standards.

Item 9 – Restriping Frontage Roads




Item 10 – Detention Basin Cleaning/Disposal/Inspection

The area east of the Jamestown Bridge and the area north of the administration

building, have detention basins to manage storm water flows. The two basins will

require clean-outs approximately every 10 years. The 10-Year Plan includes the

estimated cost of the inspection and clean-out in 2021-2022. Note that detention

basin cleaning, disposal and inspection are beyond the scope of general

maintenance.



PAGE 50 OF 58

Item 11 – Fencing and Guardrail Replacement

The majority of the fencing and timber guardrails along the RI 138 connector

highway were installed during the early 1990’s and sections of these are in need of

replacement due to various defects. The 10-Year Plan includes the estimated cost of

fencing and guardrail replacement spaced at a 3-year interval.

Item 12 – Miscellaneous Bridge Repairs - 7 Minor Structures

The seven bridges along the RI 138 connector highway were constructed during the

early 1990’s and are beginning to require structural repairs to maintain a state of

good repair. Repairs are anticipated in 2018-2019 and then again in 2022-2023.

Photo 18 - View of the Jamestown Maintenance Building

Item 4 – Jamestown Toll Plaza and Tunnel

The Jamestown toll plaza area was updated in 2012 with the addition of open road

toll lanes. The previous configuration of six mixed toll lanes (cash and E-Z Pass

lanes) in each direction was converted into four mixed toll lanes (cash and E-Z Pass

lanes) in each direction plus one open road (highway speed) toll lane in each

direction. The addition of highway speed toll lanes in the middle of the mixed toll

lanes resulted in the need for a safe way for RITBA employees to access the

eastbound mixed toll lanes. An access tunnel was constructed below the toll plaza

for this purpose. The tunnel and toll plaza will require maintenance and repairs

during the 10-year period. Included in the intended work is tunnel waterproofing.

FACILITIES

Item 5 – New Maintenance Headquarters

RITBA has acquired additional maintenance equipment in recent years, including

an under-bridge access truck and equipment related to the Newport/Pell Bridge

movable barrier. To protect and maintain this equipment, the Authority intends to

construct a new structure adjacent to the existing maintenance building in

Jamestown.

Item 6 – Administration Building - Rehab./Expansion for RhodeWorks

The current RITBA administration building will eventually house new staff to

support the State of Rhode Island’s RhodeWorks truck tolling program. The current

building, constructed in 2012, does not have the sufficient capacity for the new

staff. This item is to cover the cost of expanding the building for this purpose.

Item 7 – Bristol Historic Administration Building Renovation (Mt. Hope House)

The historic Mt. Hope House, which is currently leased to Roger Williams

University, has undergone extensive renovations in the past few years. Additional

work, including painting and roofing, is anticipated during the 10-year period.

Item 8 – Sakonnet Pre-Engineered Metal Storage Building - Non-insulated with Pleasing Architectural Aesthetics (Upper Road Area).

The RITBA currently has limited means to store equipment near the Sakonnet

River Bridge. The garage in Bristol for the Mount Hope Bridge does not have

sufficient capacity, resulting in the Authority storing equipment in Jamestown and

transporting it to the Mount Hope and Sakonnet River Bridges when needed. To

store and protect the equipment locally, the Authority intends to construct a new

structure adjacent to bridge in Tiverton.
