Flexibility and low-cost wins the project
Valmont Bridge Systems selected for Michigan DOT 19-bridge bundling project
When the Michigan Department of Transportation put out a call for priced-proposals on a large design-build package of bridges, Valmont® was ready. We contacted the five-competing contractor/consulting teams with price-competitive solutions as compared to traditional pre-stressed concrete and bridge-beam options.
Offerings for one to all 19 bridges were developed, depending on each team’s interest, then followed up with specific details and design parameters. In the end, the low bid winning contractor chose our press brake tub girders.
Press-brake formed steel tub girders have been independently researched and tested to deliver proven performance. Ours allow for a variety of installation and superstructure options, reduce time in the field, and comes hot-dip galvanized to provide over 75 years of maintenance-free protection.
