• Abstract:
  The Pennsylvania Rapid Bridge Replacement Project is replacing 558 structurally deficient bridges in 3 years under a single contract through an availability payment-based public–private partnership (P3). The bridges are primarily state owned, smaller spans that are on roads with low traffic volumes in rural areas across the state. The project accelerated the replacement of the bridges with robust, high-quality new structures that will be well maintained and have longer lifespans. By bundling the replacement of over 500 bridges in a single P3 procurement and by applying asset management best practices throughout the 25-year concession period, PennDOT created efficiencies through economies of scale. The bridges have also been designed to minimize environmental impacts and public inconvenience during construction.
