  The purpose of this report is to document Accelerated Bridge Construction (ABC) techniques on IBRD ; (Innovative Bridge Research and Development) project 102470 for the construction of Bridge N-16-Q ; on State Highway 69 over Turkey Creek. The construction work was done on project FBR 069A-022, ; PC 15772, and was completed in July of 2011. During the course of the project, participants were able ; to: ;  develop a design methodology, ;  develop universal details, and ;  demonstrate how fast the bridge could be constructed using this technique. ; The project demonstrated faster pier erection by utilizing precast pier caps to eliminate concrete cure ; time from the critical path in the construction schedule.
