December 2018


Here is a look at the 76 East to 295 North tunnel. You can see a concrete pumper pouring the last section of the roof. The used plastic to wall off the section of the tunnel where the roof was being poured. I assume this was done to control the temperature.

A new section of retaining wall has been started just south of the Browning Road overpass.

They have also started a new section of noise barrier in this area.

Here is the view of the wall from the back.

Here are some views of the work along 42 South taken from the Browning Road overpass.

The area along the church parking has been cleaned up. I assume this will eventually get re-paved.

Here is a look at the supports for the 295 main line near the cemetery. They have recently started to construct retaining wall around the supports.

Here is a wider view of that area. On the far right are foundations for new noise barrier.

The supports for the temporary Browning Road overpass have been complete of quite some time now but there hasn’t been any more progress on the overpass since then.

The beams for the roof of the tunnel were set a couple weeks ago then covered in corrugated steel and recently that have started pour the concrete roof. In the upper right you can also see some new noise barrier work.

Work in the area between the Al-Jo curve and the Browning Road overpass is almost complete for now. The area has been paved and a fence installed on top of the retaining wall.

DSC03382


There is still a lot of work going on below the Browning Road overpass

DSC03385


The have started to excavate some pits in this area which I assume are going to be for support columns for the main line overpass.

The biggest area of progress over the past few weeks has been the installation of the roof beams for what will be come the 76 East to 294 N ramp tunnel. The new 295 mainline will eventually pass over this tunnel. Here is the entrance to the tunnel

Another look at the entrance. You can see one of the remaining beams to be installed in the forground.

Here is a look at the other end of the tunnel.

A wider show of the tunnel entrance.

They continue to expand the retaining wall near the Bellmawr ballfields just below the Browning Road overpass.

DSC03351


They have started to build the end of the ramp where I assume it will transition into a overpass.

DSC03347


There is also a lot of work going on along 42 South just below the Browning Road overpass. A second temporary retaining wall has been installed behind the original one which they have started to remove.

A lot of work is happening along 42 South just below the Browning Road overpass. Looks the the foundations for more support columns are being put in here just like they recently were over by the cemetery.

DSC03224


Here is a closer look at this work

The supports for either end of the temporary Browning Road bridge have been complete. You can just see the one on the East bound side in the middle of this picture.

DSC03281


… and here is the one on the west bound side.

DSC03282


Here is the new 76 East to 295 North ramp. This will eventually become a tunnel under the 295 main line overpass.

DSC03229


Forms are in place for more concrete work on the walls of the ramp.

DSC03236


The triangle of land at the 295 South 42 South split. Looks like it will become a storm water retention pond.
