Reedsport
Construction of the new suspension span on the San
Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge likely will result in jobs added
to the 71-person American
Bridge hub in Reedsport. The company received a $1.43
billion contract for structural steel fabrication and
installation in a joint venture with Texas-based Fluor. The
companies will build the single-span suspension portion of the
bridge, including a 525-foot steel tower. Work has begun on the
1,854-foot bridge, with on-site work scheduled for March 2007.
