Received: 11/4/2016

Document Description: Caltrans proposes to replace two bridges along SR 299 in Modoc County. The purpose of the project is to restore the long-term reliability of the Butte Creek Bridge and Ash Creek Bridge, and reduce the need for continued maintenance and repairs. Work activities would include the construction of two new bridges on their existing alignment, installation of new guardrails and bridge railing, reconstruction of approach pavement and shoulders to conform to the new bridges, and the improvement of road connections within the project limits. The project would require vegetation clearing, temporary construction easements, and acquisitions of new ROW. The project would include water diversion at Ash Creek Bridge, and pile driving at both the Butte Creek and Ash Creek Bridges.
