Spirolite HDPE Culvert Reline Beneath Interstate

Read about the remarkable engineering feat of replacing a 280-foot segment within a 144” culvert crossing beneath busy Interstate 65 in Indiana. This project seamlessly installed 120” Spirolite High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) pipe, upholding uninterrupted traffic flow. With ingenious “Bell and Spigot” connections, the lightweight Spirolite pipes were efficiently assembled and pushed into the existing culvert. The project’s success not only reflects the innovation of HDPE profile wall technology but also demonstrates its pivotal role in safeguarding local streams crucial to the farming community and the surrounding ecosystem. The installation, completed in under two days, stands as a testament to engineering excellence and proactive environmental stewardship.
