The replacement of bridges HL-45 and HL-46 in Howell, New Jersey, involved the demolition and reconstruction of two critical bridges in a high-traffic area near the Garden State Parkway. The replacement was executed in two stages to maintain traffic flow—shifting vehicles to one side while the opposite side was demolished and rebuilt, a strategic approach that minimized disruptions for commuters and residents.

Environmental sensitivity was paramount due to the potential presence of wood turtles at the project site, a species of ecological concern. Environmental experts monitored the site to ensure compliance with conservation regulations, halting construction if active turtles were detected. Despite environmental and logistical challenges, the project was completed on budget, reflecting our expertise in managing complex infrastructure upgrades while balancing ecological and community considerations.
