A new Interstate 17 bridge in Phoenix is nearing completion as concrete was poured recently for the northbound deck.
The I-17 northbound bridge over Central Avenue is replacing a span built in 1962 that has been demolished in stages while the new bridge is constructed.
The concrete was applied by an extended boom pump system that was based at street level, according to the Arizona Department of Transportation.
“For this particular operation, 545 cubic yards of concrete were poured for this span in just a matter of hours,” reports ADOT.
