IH10 Utility Bridge Emergency 24-inch Waterline Replacement – EPWater

The B&B team was contracted by El Paso Water to design and coordinate the construction of a 24-inch water line that was damaged during a vehicular accident across from IH-10 between Mesa St. and Stanton St. This 24-inch waterline serves as a redundant major transmission line from the Canal Plant north on IH-10, therefore a line that extends beyond the bridge limits was requested by El Paso Water Company and a field survey was required for this project. The project was designed on a fast track to meet TxDOT’s schedule and consider the sensitivity of impacts on the IH-10 commuters. It was designed based on El Paso Water’s project administration manual and in coordination with TxDOT for approval of the new system and requirements for support and construction to be implemented into the design. The construction drawings were prepared on 24” x 36” reproducible media in an AutoCAD format for incorporation into the construction drawings.
