NicholsonHeads South for Kentucky Bridge Repair Project
C.J. Mahan Construction Company,LLC recently awarded Pittsburgh-based geotechnical engineering and construction firm NicholsonConstruction the foundation support contract for the rehabilitation of the US 68 Lawrence Creek Bridge.
The bridge, which was built in 1996, spans 765 feet in length and sits approximately 155 feet above Lawrence Creek. While posing no safety hazard, the bridge鈥檚 embankments have settled more than anticipated and caused some damage and stress to the structure since its construction.
