Title

Blue Jay Lane Bridge Replacement at Anderson Creek

Description

Replace the existing two-span, 39-foot long by 17-foot wide Blue Jay Lane Bridge over Anderson Creek with a new four-span 154-foot long by 22-foot wide bridge. The specific alignment for the new bridge has not yet been determined. The new bridge will either be on approximately the same horizontal alignment or constructed immediately downstream and south of the existing bridge. The new bridge will be approximately two feet higher. The proposed project will require approximately one acre of new right-of-way and may involve the relocation of existing overhead power lines. Two detour options are being considered depending on final bridge design: either the existing bridge will remain open until the new bridge is complete at which time the old bridge, approaches and piers will be demolished and removed; or, a detour utilizing an existing farm road, running from Ash Creek Road north a point on Blue Jay Lane immediately east of bridge, will be graveled and maintained as a detour until the new bridge is open to traffic.
