Fulton Avenue Bridge and South Street Design Build Bridge Replacement
Teaming with ECCO III, McLaren’s Bridge, Highway + Rail group was awarded MTA Construction & Development Contract 68632 to deliver design-build services for replacing the Fulton Avenue and South Street bridges in Mt. Vernon, NY. These structures carry vehicular and pedestrian traffic over the Metro-North Railroad.
The project replaced both bridges with modern structures designed to improve traffic flow, enhance pedestrian circulation, and provide improved access to Metro-North Railroad’s Mount Vernon East Station.
Multidisciplinary Design-Build Services for Bridge + Infrastructure Upgrades
As the Design-Builder, our team delivered comprehensive planning, design, and engineering services across multiple disciplines:
- Geomatics – Performed topographic and right-of-way surveying.
- Civil – Designed Roadway grading, drainage, signing, striping, traffic signals, lighting, utility plans, and erosion control measures. Developed Work Zone Traffic Control plans maintain safe traffic flow during construction.
- Geotechnical – Conducted a Geotechnical Exploration Program and designed improvements to the existing substructures
- Bridge – Designed the replacement superstructures and bearings and retrofitted the abutments to increase service capacity.
- Construction Engineering – Provided temporary works and SOE design to support ECCOIII.
