Bridge Construction & Rehabilitation

Cast-in-place, precast and steel girder bridges built around live traffic and moving water.

We have built and rehabilitated more than 120 bridges across the Pacific Northwest, from two-span creek crossings to 1,200-foot segmental structures over tidal water. The common thread is control: of the work sequence, the river, the travelling public and the concrete.

Scope of work

  • Cast-in-place substructure and superstructure
  • Precast and steel girder erection
  • Deck replacement, widening and overlays
  • Seismic retrofit and bearing replacement
  • Scour countermeasures and channel work
  • Temporary works, detours and bypass structures

Technical capabilities

  • Post-tensioned and segmental concrete
  • Steel plate girder fabrication and erection
  • Driven pile, drilled shaft and cofferdam foundations
  • Joint replacement and deck rehabilitation
  • Hydraulic and scour analysis coordination
  • Underwater inspection and repair crews

Built around live traffic

Most bridge work happens on structures that cannot close. We plan the job in stages that keep a lane, a sidewalk or a marine channel open — and we price the temporary works that make that possible instead of discovering them mid-project. Traffic control, falsework, shielding and detour structures are part of the base scope, not a change order.

What we self-perform

Our crews place and finish structural concrete, erect falsework and formwork, install girders and bearings, and run the survey and grade control that keeps the geometry true. Self-performing the critical path removes the coordination layer between the schedule and the people doing the work.

Rehabilitating what is already there

Deck replacement and seismic retrofit often deliver more service life per dollar than replacement. We survey the existing structure, identify the load path, and sequence demolition so the remaining structure is never asked to carry more than it was designed for. Bearing replacement, column jacketing, shear keys and deck overlays are routine work for our field teams.

Commissioning and handover

As-built survey, load-test documentation, maintenance manuals and owner training are built into the closeout schedule. The bridge opens with a complete record, not a folder of loose ends.

How does a contractor get on the Craneway Civil Construction bid list?
Submit the enquiry form on our contact page with your trade, license numbers and a current certificate of insurance. Our estimating team reviews new subcontractors and suppliers weekly. Once approved, you will be added to the bid list for the scopes that match your capabilities and will receive invitations through our estimating system.
What is Craneway Civil Construction’s bonding capacity?
We maintain a $150 million aggregate bonding capacity with a $60 million single-project limit through our surety. Current bonding and financial references are included in our prequalification packet, which can be requested from our estimating team.
Do you self-perform concrete, earthwork and pipeline work?
Yes. Craneway Civil Construction directly employs concrete, carpentry, excavation, paving and pipeline crews. We self-perform the structural concrete, earthwork and underground work that sits on the critical path. Mechanical and electrical work is performed by long-term subcontractor partners who are integrated into preconstruction.
How do you handle traffic control and public impact?
Traffic control is planned during preconstruction with the owner and the local jurisdiction, not improvised in the field. Our work plans identify lane closures, detours, access for emergency services and business entrances before mobilization. For larger corridors we provide public information support, including notices, signage and a staffed project line.
What delivery methods do you offer?
We deliver Design-Bid-Build, Design-Build, Progressive Design-Build, CM/GC and CM at Risk. Our preconstruction team can support alternative-delivery pursuits with constructability review, open-book estimating, target-value design and GMP development.
