Mammoet completed the removal of the historic US 181 Harbor Bridge in Corpus Christi, Texas, performed as part of the Texas Department of Transportation’s Harbor Bridge Replacement Project for FlatironDragados.
The 2,300t truss was lowered 50 meters using strand jacks, placed on a barge, and transported to a nearby facility with 108 axle lines of SPMT.
With more than 60 years of service, the steel truss bridge reached its final stage of decommissioning as TxDOT advances the new cable-stayed Harbor Bridge.
