PB designing Alameda highway improvement

The Alameda County Transportation Improvement Authority has awarded a US$110 million contract to Parsons Brinckerhoff (PB) to design a highway widening and improvement project along I-238. The improvements involve widening I-238 between I-580 in Castro Valley and I-880 in San Leandro from four lanes to six lanes in each direction. Auxiliary lanes will be added to I-880 between I-238 and West A Street. The project encompasses widening, reconstruction or replacement of 18 bridges. As the prime consultant, PB will be responsible for bridge design, construction staging, traffic handling, value engineering, permits, construction estimating and scheduling. Construction is scheduled to begin in the latter part of 2004 with completion slated for late 2006.

Important Update: Bridge Design & Engineering Magazine


For more than 31 years, Bridge Design & Engineering has been a trusted source of new insights, knowledge, and connections for the global bridge community.  With the rapid shifts in the publishing landscape and increasing costs, sustaining the printed magazine at the high level of quality our readers expect has become increasingly challenging.  After careful consideration, Hemming Group Ltd has made the difficult decision to discontinue the print publication.


You will continue to have full access to the Bridge Design and Engineering website - including the complete archive. Although the site will no longer be updated, the archive remains a rich resource of engineering knowledge and project insight.  You can also continue to access the Bridge Directory, IBIG, through the website or directly at: https://www.bdeibig.com/


While this marks the end of an era, it also opens a new chapter, one focused on strengthening the connections, collaboration, and technical excellence that our community thrives on.  Our energy and investment will now be directed toward expanding and enhancing our industry leading events that bring the bridge community together.


Our flagship events Bridges and Bridges Scotland will continue to thrive as essential annual gatherings for bridge owners, managers, designers, engineers, and suppliers.  These events play a vital role in sharing innovation, showcasing best practice and emerging technologies, and fostering meaningful collaboration across the industry.  We are excited to build on their success and will further develop these events in the years ahead.
