Lycoming County Bridge Bundling Announcement

By

Lycoming County Commissioners awarded its Bridge Bundling Program to Bassett Engineering on June 11, 2020.  Seventeen bridges will be replaced or repaired at an estimated total construction cost of $6.9 million, making this our largest bridge project to date. The bridges will be bundled in a series of construction projects, each project being planned to include 4 to 5 bridges. This program will be the first of its kind in the state, a partnership where Lycoming County is taking the lead in joining with 17 municipalities in the County which actually own the bridges. Wallace Montgomery and Associates, one of the mid-Atlantic’s premier bridge engineers will be our subconsultant. Construction is planned to be complete by the end of 2023.

You can read more about our new project thanks to the feature that is in the Sun Gazette.

Bassett Engineering Bridges

By

Over the past year, Bassett Engineering supervised construction of our two largest bridge designs to date, as well as several others. BE worked with the townships to obtain funding from PennDOT, FEMA, and other sources. Contact us today with your bridge needs!

Our newest bridge work includes:

  • Back Road Bridge: An 80-foot traditional prestressed concrete box beam bridge for Washington Township, Lycoming County
  • A 66-foot precast concrete BEBO arch bridge for Lewis Township, Lycoming County (2018)
  • Aluminum box culvert for Lewis Township, Union County (2018)

It’s been a busy week and a half at the project site.  The contractor, Rylind Construction, placed shale fill on both advance approaches beyond the bridge MSE wall limits.  This fill is subbase for the future approach roadway.  They placed geogrid and stone backfill behind the MSE walls, removed the Jersey Barrier from the stream, placed rip-rap at all 4 corners of the bridge and restored the stream channel under the bridge.

Buildings and Land Development

By

Bassett Engineering designs land developments, such as the expansion of the Walnut Street Christian School in Clinton County, the Comfort Inn expansion in Lycoming County, lighting improvements for Mifflin Borough, and many others.  We also review them for municipalites and counties.  We reviewed a wide variety of Land Development Plans while serving as the Lycoming County Planning Commission Engineer from 2010 through 2013.  We do not do any private work in a municipality where we serve as the Engineer.  However, working as both designer and reviewer on commercial shopping centers, hotels, industrial sites and residential subdivisions makes us better at both roles. Some of our representative projects include the following.
