Introduction to the Eighth Street Urban Viaduct Project in Cincinnati, USA
The Eighth Street City Viaduct in Cincinnati was opened in 1928 and is one of the oldest urban elevated highways in the United States. The Eighth Street City Viaduct was constructed by the Ohio state government, with the entire bridge made of reinforced concrete and a length of 3.2 kilometers, designated as a state highway.
After more than 80 years of trials and tribulations, the Eighth Street City Viaduct in Cincinnati appears old and dilapidated. In 2008, the viaduct entered the closed and major repair phase, with the Cincinnati City Department of Transportation Engineering serving as the construction management team and funding from the Lower Price Hill and Queensgate communities, the Lower Price Hill community committee, and the Queensgate business alliance. This major overhaul replaced bridge piers, sidewalks, guardrails, concrete pavements, structural repairs, and replaced all street lights.
The concrete surface protection of the bridge after major repairs is entirely treated with ChemTec concrete sealing and curing agent from the United States, with a construction area of approximately 250000 square meters.
The Eighth Avenue Viaduct held a ribbon cutting ceremony on the morning of October 22, 2009. Speakers such as Mark Malloy, Mayor of Cincinnati, and Hans Jindal, Deputy Director of the Eighth District of the Ohio Department of Transportation, delivered brilliant speeches.
ChemTec products from the United States have played an important role in many famous road and bridge construction projects. It takes on the arduous task of protecting floors and roads in harsh environments, and successfully achieves a stunning effect of enduring new ground conditions. Kentucky has always insisted on writing a 20-year quality commitment with facts.
