Overview Points
Completed in 1951, the Commercial Street Bridge is nearly 70 years old.
The structure carries approximately 100,000 vehicles per day, but does not allow permit loads due to insufficient load-carrying capacity.

Major Past Rehabilitation
Construction completed in 1951
1980 Rehabilitation • Deck widened by 2 feet in both directions
• Concrete wearing surface removed and replaced
• Latex overlay added

Major Past Rehabilitation
2007 Rehabilitation • Joint replacements
• Hydro-demolition and latex wearing surface
• Concrete substructure repairs
• Floorbeam repair

Major Past Rehabilitation
2012 Rehabilitation • Replace select expansion joints with
strip seal dams
• Strengthen fascia (outer) stringer
• Install column bracing at top of arch spans
• Miscellaneous concrete spall repairs
![Page 9: PUBLIC MEETING - PennDOT Home · Bridge Replacement Options Two construction methods considered: Staged Construction •Build new bridge in 3 partial-width steps; •Maintains 2 lanes](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081405/5f0cfb5f7e708231d438177a/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Current Condition
Numerous concrete spalls
Cracks up to ¼” wide in some locations
Active corrosion is evident throughout the structure
The condition of the deck, floor system, and arch spandrel columns prevent the bridge from carrying large/oversize vehicles
Another rehabilitation will be needed soon to prevent load restrictions

Bridge Replacement Options
Two construction methods considered:
Staged Construction• Build new bridge in 3 partial-width steps;
• Maintains 2 lanes of traffic in each direction during peak hours.
Slide-In Construction • Build new bridge beside existing and slide into place;
• Short-term closure of I-376 required.
