BACKGROUND
The bridges are located in various locations in Yolo County as shown on the location map (see Attachment A) and listed below:
- Bridge# 22C-0048 on CR 99W over Bird Creek
- Bridge# 22C-0036 on CR 90 over Cottonwood Slough
- Bridge# 22C-0118 on CR 31 over Chickahominy Slough
- Bridge# 22C-0160 on CR 88 over North Fork Dunnigan Creek
- Bridge# 22C-0085 on CR 32D over Branch Putah Creek
- Bridge# 22C-0106 on CR 87 over Creek S14
- Bridge# 22C-0094 on CR 40A over Pine Creek
Due to roadway embankment erosion, failed abutment drainage system, eroded slope at abutments, and failed bridge rails, Caltrans recommended on their inspection reports to rehabilitate the bridges and embankments. Rehabilitation will include removal of existing rip rap, placement of rock slope protection (RSP), placement of stacked concrete bags, asphalt patching, earthwork and grading, shoulder backing, guardrail and barrier rail repair and replacement and concrete patching. This rehabilitation project will reduce maintenance expenditures.
Plans and specifications for the project are complete, and ready to circulate for bidding, once permits are finalized. The engineer’s estimate including contingency is $374,000. The construction phase of the project is eligible for federal Highway Bridge Program funds under the Bridge Preventive Maintenance Program at a reimbursement rate of 88.53%.
The bridge preventive maintenance project is expected to be completed by the end of the 2016 summer construction season.
