Lift day for the fourth Bridge under Bundle 2 in The Lycoming Bridge Bundling Program went underway! Across Wilson Street in Jersey Shore Borough, 11 precast concrete box sections and an end section were placed. Wolyniec Construction and Contech set the arches for the site.
Bassett Engineering is excited to announce the completion of the first bridge under Bundle 2 of the Lycoming County Bridge Bundling Program! The new precast concrete arch bridge on Smith Road in Franklin Township spans 16′ and has a clear width of 48’. The bridge site has been improved by increasing the hydraulic opening and reducing scour at the outlet by lowering stream velocities through the structure. Bassett Engineering designed, bid, and provided construction inspection, while the construction was completed by Wolyniec Construction of Williamsport, Pa. This is the first of five precast concrete bridges constructed under Bundle 2.
Bassett Engineering is excited to announce the completion of the first bridge under Bundle 3 of the Lycoming County Bridge Bundling Program! The new GRS-IBS bridge on Logue Hill in Penn Township spans 25′-0” and has a clear width of 22’. The bridge utilizes Geosynthetic Reinforced Soils (GRS) abutments, saving cost over traditional structure types. The structure selection allowed for shorter construction time and minimized road closure for the local residents. Bassett Engineering designed, bid, and provided construction inspection, while the construction was completed by Rylind Construction Company. Four more GRS-IBS bridges will be constructed under Bundle 3 this year.
A Bassett Engineering project was recently featured in the Sullivan Review! The feature included a write-up and photographs from the lift day that took place on McCarty Ridge Road, Elkland Township. See the images below to read the newspaper feature!
Lift Day photos and a timelapse video of a brand new 24 ft span precast concrete arch structure, set on McCarty Ride Road, Elkland Township. The precast structure was delivered in 4 sections and included two skewed end sections with precast headwalls. The entire structure was assembled in a single day, which will significantly reduce the road closure time and keeps construction costs to a minimum. Performance Construction Co. is the contractor for this project!

Lift DayLift Day photos of a brand new 16’ span precast concrete arch structure, set on Valley Road, Susquehanna Township. This bridge is part of the Lycoming County Bridge Bundling Program: Bundle 2. The concrete arch structure, designed by Bassett Engineering, was over 72’ long and consisted of nine concrete arch sections, five wingwall pieces, and two precast headwalls. Valley Road is expected to be open to traffic within the week. Wolyniec Construction successfully installed the arch sections along with the headwall and wingwall sections.
Basset Engineering wishes all a Happy 4th of July! On this symbolic day, may we celebrate our freedom, salute those who made this possible and keep it safe, and stand united as a nation.
Bassett Engineering had a great time exhibiting and attending the 2022 Tioga/Bradford Equipment Show!! Thank you to those who organized a great event and to those whom all attended.
