Scope Of Work
The Vermont Street Pedestrian Bridge is a 420 ft. long steel and concrete pedestrian bridge spanning a canyon and connecting two distinct San Diego communities. Completed in 1994 it crosses Washington St. between University Heights and the Uptown shopping area in Hillcrest. It was in serious need of a make-over and the City of San Diego selected General Coatings Corp. for the restoration of this iconic bridge.
The scope of work for the project included scaffolding of the entire structure utilizing quick deck scaffolding system that was suspended from the bridge with full encapsulation to mitigate any dust/debris or odors from escaping the work area during the sandblasting and painting process. This allowed for the bridge to remain open and available for the public’s use for the entire duration of the project. General Coatings utilized a state of the art hydro-abrasive blaster to prepare the bridge for the high performance epoxy coating.
General Coatings Corp. was able to complete this challenging project on time and under budget with ZERO safety incidents. Kudos to the entire team!
