Bridge 58 Replacement

HWC completed survey, environmental, permitting, right-of-way acquisition, utility coordination, and design for the replacement of the existing 150’ non-select historic bridge over Boggs Creek in Martin County within the Vincennes District. HWC was responsible for completing a funding analysis report and the Historic Bridge Alternatives Analysis for the bridge prior to the start of design. HWC also completed a revised floodway boundary for the project to minimize floodway impacts and mitigation costs for the project. HWC was responsible for coordinating impacts with permit agencies and mitigation banks to assist in securing mitigation credits utilizing the DNR In-Lieu Fee Mitigation Program for environmental mitigation.

The bridge replacement consisted of a 166’-long three-span continuous composite hybrid prestressed concrete bulb-tee beam bridge with an out-to-out bridge width of 28’-6”. The bridge utilized a three beam system supporting a new reinforced concrete bridge deck and TS-1 railing. The bridge is supported by end bents on piles and wall piers with spread footings on piles driven to rock. Due to poor soil conditions, the roadway sideslopes were reconstructed with an aggregate base and riprap. The project maintenance of traffic consisted of a road closure with a detour. The project was awarded for construction in 2024 at a cost of $3.2 million. HWC was also responsible for the construction inspection on the project. Construction was completed in 2025.

 SR 56 Bridges over Mill Creek and Goose Creek 

HWC provided road and bridge design, utility coordination, and maintenance of traffic (MOT) design for these two bridge rehabilitation projects. The existing bridges were three-span, prestressed concrete I-beam bridges along SR 56 in the Seymour District. The scope of bridge work included a rigid overlay with semi-integral abutment conversions and the replacement of the reinforced concrete bridge approaches. MOT included phasing of the bridge work by using temporary signals.

Craig Park Pedestrian Bridge

Once the City’s water reservoir, Craig Park is now a well-loved public park on the west side of the City of Brazil. HWC has assisted with multiple phases of trail improvements at Craig Park in partnership with the Clay Community Parks Association. The first phase was a loop trail around most of the lake. A second phase added a spur trail connecting the lake to the sports fields in the upper part of the park. The third and final phase of the project was the pedestrian bridge over the western outlet stream from the lake which completed the loop trail. The completed bridge provides a unique view of the lake and the original stacked stone overflow weir for the reservoir. In total, the 97-acre park now has three miles of trails.

Bridge 315 Rehabilitation

The White County Bridge 315 rehabilitation project included the replacement of the original bridge deck that was constructed in the 1970s. After conducting an inspection of the existing bridge, it was concluded that the six spans of prestressed I-beams were in generally satisfactory condition and would be repaired as needed with fiber wrap. However, the piers were in poor condition at the water line with major concrete deterioration and exposed rebar and required repair utilizing an in-water method. Additionally, the street lights and sidewalk were replaced and upgraded to current standards.

This project was constructed during winter and spring to avoid conflicts with the summer tourist season of Lake Shafer.

Paris Drive Roundabout

HWC worked with Franklin, Indiana to complete the $4.3 million King Street Reconstruction project, which included a new roundabout on Paris Drive. The roundabout was constructed to connect the residential area north of King Street, the new commercial business adjacent to the roundabout, and King Street. The roundabout is an urban single lane roundabout that is sized to handle the semi-truck traffic that exits off I-65. Sidewalks were constructed along the roundabout to provide pedestrian access from the residential area to the trail along King Street. Decorative street lights and ADA curb ramps were also constructed to help pedestrians maneuver through the roundabout. Portions of the project utilized INDOT federal aid funds, and the project was completed in 2017.
