Work to stabilize the railroad bridge embankment – which was newly-placed during the reconstruction and widening of I-75 which realigned the interstate between Wales Road and Miami Street – has been ongoing since September. The work involved injecting high-density polyurethane under the concrete slabs on both ends of the railroad bridge. The polyurethane fills any voids and levels the concrete to provide a smoother transition from the asphalt pavement to the bridge. The stabilization work was performed under overnight lane closures.
