Bridge and roadway design
Old King's Highway Bridge - Hampton, CT
(State Project No. 62-94)
The bridge carrying Old King's Highway over the Little River in Hampton was constructed under the Federal Local Bridge Program. Anchor Engineering provided engineering design services, permit assistance and construction inspection for this timber and stone faced bridge. Anchor Engineering was one of the first consultants to implement certain participating aesthetic design elements. This bridge was featured on the cover of the 2003 CTDOT Local Bridge Program Manual, has a span of 46 feet and travel width of 22 feet.
Hawleyville Road Bridge - Newtown, CT
(Bridge No. 02224)
This bridge carries Hawleyville Road over the Pond Brook in Newtown. Anchor Engineering was selected by the Town to provide preliminary engineering services for this and nine other bridges. We also provided final design for this and three other bridges, which have been built. Work on this bridge included the total replacement of the existing bridge. Pre-stressed, pre-cast concrete arch and wing walls were installed and improvements were made to the roadway alignment and drainage system. The new bridge has a span length of 32 feet and travel width of 24 feet.
Village Hill Road Bridge - Columbia, CT
(State Project No. 30-94)
The bridge carrying Village Hill Road Bridge over the Ten Mile River was completed for the Town under the CTDOT Federal Local Bridge Program and was featured on the cover of the 2007 CTDOT Local Bridge Program Manual. Anchor Engineering provided all of the necessary design services, permit assistance and full-time construction inspection for this project. An existing turn-of-the-century masonry arch structure was widened with a cast-in-place concrete arch supported by concrete abutments and u-walls, and the new portions of the structure received a stone masonry facing to match the existing bridge, so that it is difficult to differentiate new construction from old. The widened structure has a span length of 20 feet, and a travel width of 26.25 feet.
