摘要：	In October 2010, the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) launched the Every Day Counts (EDC) program to identify and promote innovation in three focus areas: (1) Shortening Project Delivery, (2) Enhancing Safety of the Roadways, and (3) Protecting the Environment. FHWA is partnering with the state departments of transportation to deliver projects with innovative technologies in order to promote their widespread use. The EDC program has been a great stimulus for the Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) to perform highway construction Better, Faster, Cheaper, Safer, and Smarter; such is the purpose of Accelerated Bridge Construction (ABC). MDOT is implementing several ABC initiatives throughout the state. This report provides a summary of the FHA-sponsored MDOT bridge slide showcase that encompassed two ABC slide in projects in Michigan: US-131 NB and SB bridges over 3 Mile Road in Morley; and the M-50 bridge over I- 96 in Lowell. The showcase included presentations from FHWA, MDOT, designers, and contractors, along with a question and answers session at a conference hall in Grand Rapids-Michigan. In addition, the showcase included field visits to the slide projects. This report documents the presentations and discussions of participants with the MDOT panel, designers, and contractors at the showcase.
