Scope Of Work
Complete electrical rehabilitation of the Cumming Bridge over the Calumet River in Chicago, for Norfolk Southern Corporation. Scope included installation of all new power wiring, control wiring, cable tray systems, new aerial wiring, new motor system, and a new control system. The Calumet River is known for its heavy barge and ship traffic. With that in mind, Norfolk Southern asked us to install most of the new system while leaving the existing lift system in place to minimize disruption to the waterway traffic. Lyons-Pinner worked with the railroad and Coast Guard to devise a plan to perform the cutover during a 14 day window in the dead of winter when waterway traffic is lighter.
