Taking advantage of extreme low water, the Corps of Engineers resumed rock removal dredging operations near Thebes, Ill., on December 13 in an area of the Mississippi River stretching from 38 to 46 miles above its confluence with the Ohio River.

The Corps’ rock removal contractor, Massman Construction Co., had begun work in October but paused when water levels rose. Massman is completing work begun in 2013 to remove potentially hazardous rock pinnacles. Enough work was completed then to allow safe transit at most river levels. Additional work had to wait until water levels dropped to very low levels, as they have now.

LOUISIANA, Mo. -- It has begun. With the groundbreaking ceremony for the new Champ Clark Bridge taking place on Friday, Sept. 8, the long awaited project is officially underway. The Louisiana riverfront was crowded with representatives from MoDOT, IDOT, Massman Construction, the city and local citizens to celebrate an infrastructure improvement that benefits both states.

The ceremony had guest speakers Patrick McKenna (MoDOT director), Randall Blankenhorn (Illinois secretary of transportation), Bart Niedner (Louisiana mayor), Andy Borrowman (Pike County Illinois chairman of the board) and J. Bennett Clark (great-grandson of James Beauchamp Clark).

NORTH LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) — The new Broadway Bridge connecting downtown Little Rock and North Little Rock is now open for traffic.

State highway officials say the bridge over the Arkansas River opened to traffic late Wednesday, which was ahead of schedule. The contractor, Massman Construction, was given a 180-day period to finish the span after the old bridge was shut down and eventually demolished.

The $98.4 million project to replace the Broadway Bridge has, at times, looked less like major construction work and more like a naval operation. That's because boats have played a prominent role in bringing down the old, 93-year-old bridge and floating part of the new bridge into place.

It took two vessels to help bring down the steel arch of the old bridge after explosives failed to dislodge it last month. Three vessels were employed to help the first of the new bridge's two arches into place two weeks ago.

In 1991, the Missouri and Illinois departments of transportation began voicing concern about the flow of interstate traffic between downtown St. Louis and St. Clair County, Illinois. Part of the solution was to build a new interstate bridge over the Mississippi River. By 2001 the two departments had determined the ideal location for the new bridge, and they had also invested money and resources securing a record of decision regarding the project from the Federal Highway Administration that would enable them to proceed. The project had already endured its share of starts and stops, and just as it seemed to have cleared many of the hurdles common in today’s large, complex transportation projects, the bridge’s design and dafabet live casinoconstruction price tag—1 million—arrived.
