Guadalupe River Project Replacement of UPRR Bridges 3 & 4

This project included construction of a two-track railroad bridge and associated approaches, a vehicular bridge, a pedestrian undercrossing, a maintenance road and environmental restoration features along the Guadalupe River between the former UPRR Bridge No. 3 and UPRR Bridge No. 4 in San Jose, California.  Bridge construction necessitated that the environmentally sensitive Guadalupe River flows be diverted.  The railroad bridge was constructed in phases to allow active train traffic to continue during the entire construction duration.
