J.M. Wilkerson Construction Co., Inc. was selected as the general contractor for the construction of the new Silver Comet Multi-Use Trail Mount Wilkinson Parkway Steel Truss Pedestrian Bridge in Marietta, GA.

This challenging bridge project consisted of 3 total spans with the longest including a 194 foot clear span directly over Interstate 285. The project required the JMW teams to completely shut down the Interstate several times while large cranes placed bridge spans into their required locations. The project also included the removal of existing paving and replacement of new 10’ wide pathways.
