Executive Summary
EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW

The SR 520 Bridge Replacement and HOV Program

will improve safety and reliability throughout the SR
520 corridor, from I-5 in Seattle to the Eastside.
Projects currently under construction include the new
six-lane SR 520 floating bridge, the new six-lane
Eastside corridor that includes culverts, improved
transit facilities and lids, and pontoon construction in
Aberdeen. Future work includes replacing the Portage
Bay and West Approach bridges, building lids in
. Seattle, and connecting a bicycle/pedestrian path from
the floating bridge to local and regional trails in
Seattle. The information contained in this report
contains details for projects in construction only in
June 2013.

CURRENTLY FUNDED PROGRAM

We are currently funded to move forward with:

 Constructing a new, safer floating bridge, including the West Connection Bridge.
 Building a new pontoon construction facility in Grays Harbor and building pontoons at that facility.
 Construction on the Eastside Transit and HOV Project.
 Building the north half of the new west approach bridge, connecting six lanes of traffic from the Montlake
interchange to the new floating bridge.
 Continuing to design the remaining elements of the west side of the corridor.

Pontoon Construction Project

ABERDEEN PONTOONS OVERVIEW

WSDOT is continuing pontoon construction to replace the

aging and vulnerable SR 520 floating bridge on Lake
Washington. The Pontoon Construction Project broke
ground in February 2011 at a 55-acre site in Aberdeen. As
part of this project, contractor Kiewit-General (KG) Joint
Venture has built a new casting basin facility and is
constructing 33 concrete pontoons that will be used to
replace the SR 520 floating bridge.

RISK
As reported in WSDOT’s Gray Notebook ed. 49, p. 65-66,
an independent expert review panel was convened to
evaluate the probable causes of spalling and cracking in the
first cycle of pontoons. An expert review panel was also
established to review design, materials, construction
methods, and the overall integrity of the pontoons.

Based on the panel’s findings, WSDOT is adding

transverse post-tensioning across the pontoons, in addition
to the length-wise post-tensioning already in place. In May
2013, a change order to the Pontoon Construction Contract
in the amount of $9.9 million was executed for the initial
repair effort and additional time necessary for the first
cycle of pontoons. Negotiations for design changes and
schedule effects continue.

SUMMARY SCHEDULE

The last Pontoon Construction Project schedule submitted by the Design-Builder KG shows delays to Cycle
4 and to Cycle 6. WSDOT is working in conjunction with KG and the Floating Bridge and Landings Design-
Builder to evaluate the contract delivery dates and determine options to accelerate the schedule. A new
delivery baseline is expected to be established in the coming months.

RISK

As reported in Gray Notebook 48 (p. 59), WSDOT and

the design-builder, Eastside Corridor Constructors,
(ECC) continue their discussions on budget and schedule
risks that developed after the contract was awarded.
Potential schedule and budget effects will be determined
after further consultation with the contractor.

WSDOT continues to work with the contractor to resolve

geotechnical considerations in the area. WSDOT is
monitoring the project and expects the geotechnical issue
to be resolved by fall 2013. Construction has been
slowed due to delays at the 84th Avenue interchange and
in the Fairweather Basin area.

Project will replace the existing, vulnerable four-lane
structure with a new six-lane bridge that can withstand

RISK

KGM is completing repairs to four Cycle 1 pontoons

that experienced cracking in end walls and keel slabs.
WSDOT is negotiating a change order with KGM to
pay for their time, labor and materials to complete
these repairs.

The Floating Bridge & Landings project may

experience a delay in schedule due to the issues found
in the first cycle of construction from Grays Harbor.
To reduce this risk, WSDOT is currently in
negotiations with both design-build teams to determine
the schedule effects between pontoon production and
floating bridge construction.

There are two potential lawsuits regarding project use

of the Kenmore site. The potential impacts of these East Approach Pier 2 Work
lawsuits are currently unknown. WSDOT is not
currently a party to any lawsuit but is monitoring the
situation closely.

This 32-acre mitigation site in Redmond is adjacent to two very important salmon-bearing streams, Bear and Evans
Creeks. Construction work in 2013 will almost exclusively involve work elements in sensitive areas, including the
diversion of Evans Creek. The WSDOT project office and Contractor are currently working together to develop and
review numerous submittals to insure that all parties have a clear unified plan for successfully performing all work
elements while meeting commitments and permit requirements.
