Résumé du projet
To alleviate congestion along I-95 across the Rappahannock River in Northern Virginia, Johnson, Mirmiran & Thompson (JMT) was contracted to deliver six miles of new southbound lanes and four bridges. The design included complex plans to maintain traffic during construction and was subject to strict environmental requirements. Previous attempts to renovate one of the busiest roadways in the United States had failed, requiring JMT to implement a streamlined digital approach.
JMT selected Bentley Open applications to model the existing roadway, proposed designs, and construction plans. Advanced modeling and simulation features allowed JMT to effectively assess traffic management and the sustainability of the new roadway designs, identifying and resolving issues early on to save time and resources, as well as minimize community and environmental impact. Integrating Bentley LumenRT produced clear, immersive animations, enhancing stakeholder and public understanding and engagement. The 3D models and simulations will help shorten construction time and minimize future roadway repairs.
