Ocean Blvd Project
PROJECT LOCATION
Long Beach, CA
The Project
We recently completed the Ocean Blvd Project with The Port of Long Beach after they started construction on a new
bicycle/pedestrian bridge east of the Gerald Desmond Bridge off Pico Avenue. The goal was to convert the existing vehicle lanes into a two-way bicycle lane and assist with traffic flow.
The Solution
Cell-Crete poured lightweight cellular concrete (LCC) behind the MSE Walls of the bridge. LCC was specified as backfill for the project as it reduces the fill load under the bridge, resolves settlement concerns, and offers environmental protection.
