PROJECT SPOTLIGHTS Structural

GDOT Fiscal Year 2016 Design-Build Bridges | Georgia, Statewide

Neel-Schaffer was the lead design firm for a $20 million project to replace 11 bridges via the design-build method at various
locations throughout Georgia. Southern Concrete was the contractor.
Neel-Schaffer prepared preliminary plans to help Southern Concrete bid the project, and Neel-Schaffer provided engineering
design, construction plans, and construction coordination services for each of the 11 new bridges, which were for off-system
stream crossings. Other services Neel-Schaffer provided included H&H, survey, detours, roadway approach design, and
environmental permitting coordination.

MS 463 Bridge | Madison, MS

Neel-Schaffer provided design services for an aesthetically
pleasing, four-lane grade separation bridge on SR 463 in the
Jackson suburb of Madison, MS.

The bridge in this heavily traveled corridor carries traffic over
the CN Railroad. The project consisted of approximately

3,360 feet of roadway and 1,285 feet of bridge. All structural
components were designed using the AASHTO LRFD
Bridge Design Specifications. The typical bridge width
accommodates four 12-foot traffic lanes with two-foot
inside and outside shoulders. There is a nine-foot wide
raised sidewalk on each side of the bridge, and a 10-foot
wide raised center median.

Said Madison Mayor Mary Hawkins Butler: “Our Madison
Parkway Bridge is a truly functional work of art that does

a wonderful job of moving traffic quickly and smoothly
through Madison.”
