- Field Observations, Problems, Conflicts and Problem Resolutions
The project has no outstanding/pending claims.
George Weston from Weston’s Farm was in attendance at the Progre ss Meetng and raised some concerns on the new bridge. He has some pictures of the elevation of the river being just below the beams on the existing bridge. The new bridge design has the elevation of the new beams about 2 ft. lower than the existing. This would place the new beams closer to the elevation of the river and closer to any ice or debris that might come down the river.
More concerns raised at the meeting were the depth of the beams being a large area subjected to wind ice and po ssibly water and debris loading during any future floods.
Also the width of the pier seems to be narrow and future problems may occur if any debris stikes the side of the pier.
The Contractor is concerned with actually setting the steel beams. They need to be adequately braced until ALL of the diaphragms are in place and connected. These beams during erection will have to be handled very cautiously to avoid any toppling of them.
There is some gaps between the pier nose armor and the new concrete. This area needs to be patched before the cofferdam is flooded. An approved patching material the contractor will use is Emaco 415 which will work with our current conditions and temperatures.
Also before CPM will be allowed to pull any sheets Jim Pellerin from inland fisheries must be notified in case he wants to witne ss removal of the sheets.
TENTATIVE PLAN AND OPTIONS:
Need to Set Structural Steel.
Need to place deck
Putting Traffic over new structure.
Options: 1. Temporary membrane and paving.
- Run traffic directly on the concrete, plan grade.
(which is not going to be allowed)
- Place concrete high during deck placement and Remove the exce ss before final membrane and paving.
The Contractor will submit a proposal on their plan of running traffic over the new bridge.
Also to protect the temporary piers from damage the contractor will drive sheet piles in front of the temporary pier bents to protect them from any ice or debris coming down the river until traffic is on the new bridge.
Erosion control measures were inspected and everything was in order.
The Contractor will maintain a 4.2 meter traffic lane at all times as stated in the Plans and Specs. If the Contractor wants to decrease the width of this travel lane temporarily during the day the Contractor will provide flaggers at their own expense during this lane limitation. If any vehicle cannot get through the project due to the limitation of the lane width the Contractor will
need to move to allow passage of the vehicle.
Need prices from CPM for the Following items :
None at this time.
Need to complete payment for Disposal of Timber Piles .
Payment for Striping.
Payment for Geotextile.
- Review of Future Action Items
Any authorized persons who take exception to any statement in these minutes must notify the Resident in writing within seven days from receipt of the minutes, stating in detail the comment, correction or omission. Otherwise, these minutes shall stand as written.

- Field Observations, Problems, Conflicts and Problem Resolutions
The project has no outstanding/pending claims.
Erosion control measures were inspected and everything was in order.
Traffic lights need to be adjusted from the micro-wave to a timed system to accommodate the field conditions.
Need to erect a sign tomorrow to inform people that Weston’s Farm is still open.
The Contractor has installed the bouy system to channel the boat traffic to safe passage through the work area and is working effectively.
This needs to be relocated to a center channel due to the very low water levels in the river.
There has been a problem with pedestrians jumping off the bridge into the construction area, the Town Police have been notified.
The Weston’s Farm house has concerns of damage to their house due to vibration from the construction. CPM will address this issue after the bridge is moved.
When the bridge is relocated their will be a 3 ft shoulder striped where pedestrians can walk.
We will try to accommodate canoe traffic around the construction area during the bridge relocation.(river will be closed at that time to boat/canoe traffic). Some options will be to have a temporary portage during this time. Others are to put in at the beach below the closure. All Canoe rental places upstream of the closure will be notified of the closure well in advance.
The Contractor will maintain a 4.2 traffic lane at all times as stated in the Plans and Specs. If the Contractor wants to decrease the width of this travel lane temporarily during the day the Contractor will provide flaggers at their own expense during this lane limitation. If any vehicle cannot get through the project due to the limitation of the lane width the Contractor will need to move to allow passage of the vehicle.
