The Braddock Avenue/Kenmawr Avenue ramp replacement project reached a significant milestone, as the new ramp's steel beams were placed on the reconstructed abutments and new piers.

Amelie Construction & Supply, a subcontractor for the primary construction contractor Mosites Construction Company, used an 18,400-pound, 115-foot crane to place the beams, which ranged from 80 to 120 feet in length and weighed between 20,565 to 35,525 pounds. The beams were fabricated and driven from Lancaster, PA. The project remains on schedule.
