Point Design Group was hired by the Medina County Engineer for the replacement of a deficient single span steel beam bridge.
The new replacement structure is an 83-foot single span concrete box beam superstructure with a composite deck. This new bridge is supported on an integral rear abutment and a semi-integral forward abutment. The new structure was built with zero skew, eliminating a variable beam length.

Point Design Group was contracted by St. Clair Township in Westmoreland County to provide engineering design and construction period services on three roadway widening and surfacing projects within the Township.
The 14-foot wide bridge reconnects the Ohio & Erie Canal towpath at a location where an aqueduct once transported canal boats over the river. The reemergence of the towpath as a recreational corridor was the driving force in providing this safe passage along this section of the towpath.
Point Design Group identified alternatives that not only improved the pavement conditions, drainage, and lighting on the Akron-Canton Airport entrance road and parking areas but also reduced congestion in front of the terminal and simplified ingress and egress.
This project marks Ohio’s first “Contraflow” bike lane and Stark County’s first dedicated bike lane. Point Design Group received three awards for this Canton, Ohio project, in 2014.
Point Design Group team was hired by the Stark Park District to complete the planning and design for this bridge over IR-77 that reconnects the Ohio & Erie Canal Towpath between Fort Laurens in Bolivar and the Village of Zoar.
Point Design Group teamed with H.R. Gray of Akron, Ohio, for this new $9.9 million Downtown Transformation Design-Build Project.
