Michael Baker International is managing the Mobile River Bridge and Bayway Project to reconstruct I-10 in Mobile, Alabama. This includes building a new two-tower cable stayed bridge and replacing the 7-mile-long I-10 Bayway Bridge, reconfiguring seven interchanges and implementing an all-electronic tolling system. The project is the largest in the Alabama Department of Transportation’s (ALDOT) history. When complete, the project will remove one of the most critical interstate bottlenecks in the United States, where I-10 passes through Downtown Mobile. The project will accommodate anticipated growth in Mobile, minimize impacts on Mobile’s expanding maritime industry and eliminate detouring of hazardous materials through economically underprivileged communities.
