Project Trivia
- Construction of the I-295 flyover project requires
6.7 million pounds of steel. That's equal to the weight of aluminum it takes to
make forty-five 747 airplanes.
- This project has over 300,000 square feet of
retaining wall and sound wall. That's enough wall to cover six football
fields.
- This project will require over 46,357 truck loads of
material to be hauled on and off the site. Lined up end to end, the trucks would
stretch from Richmond to Washington, D.C. and back.
- The project requires 153,623 square feet of fence
fabric. That's enough fence to cover the floor of the Richmond Coliseum seven
times.
