Skanska, Corman Kokosing Âé¶¹Éç Company and McLean Contracting Company have been appointed by Maryland Department of Transportation and the Maryland Transportation Authority to design and build the new Governor Harry W. Nice Memorial/Senator Thomas ‘Mac’ Middleton Bridge . Skanska’s share of the contract is worth US$301m (£233m).
The existing, two-lane bridge linking Newburg in Maryland and Dahlgren in Virginia will be replaced with four-lane structure. In addition, the project will include road realignment and construction of a stretch of about 800m on either side of the bridge. Â
Once the new bridge and roadway construction is complete, the existing bridge will be demolished and used to create artificial reefs in Chesapeake Bay.
Âé¶¹Éç will begin March 2020 and the new bridge expected to open by 2023. Project completion is scheduled for December 2024.
