Addi onal work includes ground improvements leading up to the bridge structure along with drainage, grading, retaining walls and other miscellaneous construction. Extensive Catenary Work is also included in this contract. This project also requires extensive coordination with many utilities, the owner, the current systems operator, and the FTA.

On November 5, 2015 GHCCI was the apparent low bidder on the Replacement of Monmouth County Bridge MA-14 (Amboy Ave/W. Front St) at Matawan Creek. The existing MA-14 bridge was a four span steel bridge structure with steel open grid decking. The structure was originally built as a drawbridge, but due to the bridge’s poor condition nearly 50 years ago, Monmouth County removed the mechanical equipment and fixed the bridge down to the substructure.
