Title

Lake Hodges Pedestrian/Bicycle Bridge

Description

The operator proposes to alter the streambed of Lake Hodges, tributary to the San Dieguito River, tributary to the Pacific Ocean, to accommodate the Lake Hodges Pedestrian/Bicycle Bridge Project, a 990-foot long bridge with related trail connections for pedestrians and bicyclists across Lake Hodges. The bridge will be a stress ribbon type structure with two piers placed in the lake and concrete abutments at either end of the bridge. Construction includes installing a series of pre-cast concrete panels, strung on cable anchored into the two bridge abutments. The cables will be stressed with tension to support the bridge platform. The two piers beneath the platform will rest on footings made from pre-cast concrete piles fabricated off-site and positioned by a crane in the lake. Both bridge abutments will consist of below-grade, concrete base structures. The project impacts 0.77 acre of streambed (Streambed Alteration Agreement #1600-2004-0470-R5).
