摘要: As transportation departments increasingly turn their focus from new construction to rehabilitating and reconstructing existing highways, accelerating construction is key to reducing problems with congestion, safety, and user delays, particularly in heavily traveled urban areas. This is the situation the Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) is facing on one of its major endeavors, the Innerbelt Freeway Reconstruction project. Constructed in the late 1950s and early 1960s, Clevelands Innerbelt Freeway (I-90) is host to a number of operational and safety concerns. As a result, ODOT has embarked on an ambitious plan to completely reconstruct the Cleveland Innerbelt. The project, estimated to cost over $850 million, will upgrade the existing facility to current design standards while balancing safety, operation and access. The undertaking poses significant construction challenges; the origin and destination points of approximately 85 percent of the a.m. and p.m. peak traffic in this region fall within the project study area. Knowing this, ODOT approached the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) about hosting an Accelerated Construction Technology Transfer (ACTT) workshop for the Innerbelt Freeway Reconstruction project.
