Abstract

Through the partnership between the Hawaii Department of Transportation (HDOT) and the Central Federal Lands Highway Division (CFLHD) of the Federal Highway Administration, six of the bridge structures along the State-owned portion of the Hana Highway will be replaced. Due to the nature of this road, and the limited opportunities for detours and road closures, along with context-sensitive solution design and right-of-way considerations, these structures will be replaced utilizing an accelerated bridge construction (ABC) technique known as a lateral bridge slide. To our knowledge, this project will be the first implementation of this ABC technique.
