Bi-State Regional Commission - Mississippi River Crossing Strategies Centennial Bridge/Short Term Efforts: The removal of the tolls on the Centennial Bridge is seen as a short term project that would relieve some congestion on the I-74 Bridge (approximately 5,000 vehicles per day). The I-74 Bridge is extremely important to the commerce of the area. Although this bridge does not significantly relieve traffic in the I-74 corridor, it does provide access across the river where there is a nine-mile crossing gap. www.bistateonline.org /ser/tra/mrc_str.shtml   (1415 words)

I-74 Tolls were collected here until 1970, and I-74 was connected onto this bridge (which does not meet modern Interstate standards due to its lack of shoulders and 50-mph speed limit) in 1974. The Iowa-Illinois Memorial Bridge (now known by locals as simply the "I-74 bridge") actually predates I-74 itself; it was first built as a single span for US 6 in 1935, while the second span dates back from 1960. I-74 would have follow the current I-80 from the cloverleaf junction in Colona (known as the "Big X") to the exit with I-280 in Davenport. iowahighways.home.mchsi.com /highways/i-74.html   (429 words)

Spliced Girders Smooth Centennial Trail's Path Located 14 miles outside of town, the new bridge measures 458 feet long and 74 feet wide, replacing a cast-in-place T-beam structure measuring 410 feet long and 36 feet wide. To alleviate intersection congestion between the historic Centennial Trail and bridge traffic, the trail was lowered and moved closer to the riverbank, allowing a cast-in-place abutment to work in conjunction with the precast concrete girders to create a windowed tunnel under the bridge. These consisted of a three-span steel bridge using six lines of plate girders, requiring two piers in the river; a three-span cast-in-place design using pier tables with drop-in precast pieces between the tables; a four-span precast option using conventional WSDOT girder shapes; and a three-span precast spliced-girder approach. www.pci.org /markets/markets.cfm?path=bridges&id=harvard.cfm   (1635 words)

London, Summary of the Bridges, 1819, History But during the making of these calculations, on one fine Sunday in August, 1808, there walked along Blackfriars' Bridge, 74,427.— The first calculation was made with the view to the probable profits of the Southwark Bridge; the last, as already stated, had reference to the possible advantages of the Waterloo Bridge. Some idea of the extent of traffic that takes place across the bridges, may be formed from the succeeding statements:—According to an abstract of an account that was taken in July, 1811, of the foot-passengers horses, carriages, andc., it appears that there passed over Blackfriars' Bridge 61,069 foot passengers, suppose at 1d.
