Concrete Industries produced 12 precast bridge girders that were recently delivered to the South Beltway project site near 27th and Saltillo Road in Lincoln. The 153 foot girders, each weighing approximately 75 tons, traveled across Lincoln on trucks alongside six police escorts to control traffic on Corn- husker Highway and south on 27th Street. Once on site, the girders were lift-ed and set in place for the overpass currently under construction.
The agencies involved in coordinating the delivery include: Concrete Industries, Argee Transport Co. Hawkins Construction Company, United Construction Company, City of Lincoln Traffic Engineering, Lincoln Police Department, and BNSF Railway.
