Revitalizing Infrastructure: Montgomery-Russell Bridge Transformation Enhances Safety, Structure, and Highway Flow for Modern Travel Experience

The $46.9 million rehabilitation of the Montgomery-Russell Bridge located on Interstate 90 over US Route 20, Westfield River and the CSX Railroad in the towns of Montgomery and Russell focused on both the superstructure and the substructure of the existing bridge, lighting and drainage improvements. The rehabilitation of the bridge deck featured a major steel component replacement, and concrete deck work along the 1460ft long bridge. Upgrades included 2-foot left shoulders, 12-foot lanes, 8-foot right shoulders, a wider twin single-faced barrier, and more narrow bridge rails within the existing width of the bridge. Because the scope of work did not include roadway widening beyond the bridge, work took place in multiple stages to facilitate traffic flow at the full capacity of four total lanes, two in each direction.
