Jamestown-Verrazzano Bridge spans the Narragansett Bay in
Rhode Island. It consists of three main segments: a cast-in-place
concrete trestle structure, heavy-lift precast approach spans,
and a cast-in-place cantilever main span. The project encountered
differing site conditions in pile placement (excessive driving
necessary), defective concrete specifications, defective design
issues and schedule delays that were overcome by acceleration.
Smith Pachter attorneys prepared claims and initiated litigation
in the Circuit Court for Providence, Rhode Island. Our firm
resolved the claim through mediation. (Owner: Rhode Island
