Here are some fabulous shots of the construction at Sand Creek provided to me by the Contra Costa Transportation Authority. The photos were taken yesterday and are of the placing of the concrete deck for the Sand Creek Undercrossing.
The white liquid and the tarps are for the curing of the concrete after it is placed. The machine they are using is called a bid-well.
According to Ivan Ramirez, Senior Engineer, the project is currently on schedule to be completed on time, however, they are trying to finish early.
About the Project:
The Sand Creek Road Interchange Project will widen SR4 from 2 to 4 lanes (2 in each direction) from Lone Tree Way to Sand Creek Road. The project also includes the construction of the Sand Creek Road Interchange and will provide a median wide enough to accommodate mass transit.
These improvements will result in much needed congestion relief and improve mobility for the residents of East Contra Costa County.
Contractor: Bay Cities/Myers, Joint Venture
Timeline: Construction began in June 2012. Estimated date of completion is Spring 2014.

Thanks for sharing, these are very neat pictures.
They aren’t going all the way to Balfour? Dumb.
