Traffic disruption due to bridge construction has been reduced to several hours with the development of methods characterized as Accelerated Bridge Construction. Associated risks, and additional work involved with the accelerated construction for a site result in increased initial project cost is assumed to be balanced by reduced risk for traffic within work zone, cost for maintenance of traffic, life cycle cost, construction duration, user cost during construction. This article presents a comprehensive cost model for accelerated bridge construction that incorporates the economic impact on the surrounding communities and businesses considering not only user costs but also, environmental costs and economic activity costs.
