Peddie Lake Dam Pedestrian Bridge

About The Project

RVE provided inspection and construction administration services for the Peddie Lake Dam Pedestrian Bridge Project, which received funding through the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and was administered by the New Jersey Department of Transportation (NJDOT). The scope of construction included furnishing, construction, and installation of the pedestrian bridge, concrete foundation repairs to the existing dam structure, installation of electrical conduits for walkway lighting, removal and reconstruction of sidewalk and stairs to comply with ADA standards, demolition of bulkheads, walls, railings and handrails, construction of ramps, stone knee wall, and planters, relocation of existing light fixtures, grading and landscaping, and coordination with New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP) Dam Safety. RVE’s Lead Inspector provided full-time detailed inspections ensuring construction was completed in conformance with the approved plans, specifications, FHWA and NJDOT requirements and the Borough of Hightstown’s Federal Aid Program Policies and Procedures Handbook. RVE also provided construction administration services, which included reviewing the Contractor’s baseline schedule prior to construction, arranging and leading the preconstruction meeting, shop drawing review support for the Borough, review of change orders and contract payments, providing progress reports and obtaining project close out documents.

Contractor operations were monitored to ensure pedestrian safety through the park was maintained during work and nonwork hours.

During the construction of this project, it was imperative to maintain ADA-compliant pedestrian access through the work zone at all times.

RVE provided onsite inspection at all times when work was being performed over the 180-calendar day duration of the project.
