Document Description
The proposed project is the repair of an existing culvert that carries Alamo Creek under Old Ranch Road. The culvert is a triple 10-foot by 10-foot reinforced concrete box culvert approximately 99.25 feet in length. The project proposes to construct a new headwall in front of the existing headwall and buttress supports on the channel side at the north end of the culvert. The existing wall would ramin in place and would act as the formwork for the backside of the new headwall. The new headwall would have two buttresses that would be doweled into each of the existing box culvert walls and into the roof of the existing box culvert. The buttresses are an extension of the existing box culvert interior walls. A temporary cofferdam with bypass pipe will be required in the channel during construction. The project also includes the removal of approximately 30 cubic yards of silt that is located at the south end of the culvert and is blocking drainage in the eastern cell. All access to Alamo Creek will be via the northwest quadrant which was previously gunnited (covered with concrete and rocks) to minimize erosion. Construction is anticipated to require approximately 60 days. Construction is anticipated to begin in the summer of 2005 and be complete before November 1, 2005.
