When the shoreline fails, engineers step up.
Join us for an in-depth look at how an emergency shoreline failure along the Buffalo River was assessed, stabilized, and repaired in record time through teamwork and creative engineering.
The NFTA and McMahon & Mann Engineers, supported by trusted local contractors, implemented an emergency stabilization and repair project that required rapid decision-making, technical expertise, and hands-on field coordination—all along one of Buffalo’s most challenging riverfront sites.
Todd Swackhamer, PE (McMahon and Mann Consulting Engineers) and John Schaefer, PE (NFTA) will be presenting.
