Parkdale Quarry Bridges
Project Description:
Lobato Construction was the prime contractor for two different Martin Marietta projects at their Parkdale Quarry Facility located along US-50 west of Canon City, CO.
Tallahassee Creek Bridge Rehab:
This project was to rehabilitate the bridge over Tallahassee Creek that provides access between the mining area and the processing facility within the quarry facility. The project included repairs to the existing steel superstructure, installation of shear studs, and construction of a new concrete deck and bridge rail.

This project replaced the bridge on County Road 157 providing access to the Parkdale Quarry from US-50 over the Arkansas River. The project included demolition of the existing truss bridge, installation of micropile foundations, construction of a new 111’ long, 29’ wide single span precast/prestressed concrete girder bridge, reconstruction of roadway approaches, and other miscellaneous work.
