After months of delays and an additional $179 million, Washington State's Hood Canal Bridge reconstruction reached 80% completion this month with the completion of the last pontoon sections for a new eastern half. A joint venture of Kiewit Pacific Co., Vancouver, Wash., and General Construction Co., Poulsbo, Wash., on Aug. 1 floated the last two of 14 pontoons out of a graving dock in Tacoma for a trip to Todd Pacific Shipyard in Seattle. Electrical and mechanical systems will be added there in preparation for a six-week final installation at the site of the 7,869-ft-long bridge next spring.
