Document Description
The Project will replace the existing Mountain Road 109 (M109) bridge crossing over White River with a new two-lane bridge structure to match the required minimum width to carry two lanes of traffic. The approximate limits of the Project are approximately 500 feet northwest and 300 feet southeast of the existing M 109 bridge crossing of White River. The Project will conform to the existing roadway width and will provide an improved road alignment for safety. The replacement bridge structure will consist of a concrete slab bridge approximately 100 feet long and will be no greater than 18 feet in height when measured from the channel bottom. The White River channel will be graded to restore natural channel contours. Rock slope protection may be necessary around the bridge abutments for scour protection. Temporary construction easements will be needed for bridge construction and construction staging areas. Permanent slope easements may be required to conform the finished grades of the maintenance roads along each side of the channel to the bridge profile grade. Right-of-way acquisition and utility relocations are anticipated. Stage construction will be utilized to keep the roadway and driveway open to traffic during construction. Construction is anticipated to begin in 2024 and would take approximately 12 months to complete.
