Project Details:

• Existing concrete slab bridge with concrete pier caps and abutment seats bearing on pipe piles.

• Bridge over river and roadway.

• Channel width decreased enabling bridge length to be reduced from ten spans to five.

• Rehabilitation design:

  • replaced bridge deck and barrier railings,

  • removed unnecessary pier caps and abutment seats,

  • converted outer pier caps to abutment seats,

  • repaired concrete at pier caps and wingwalls,

  • constructed new approach slabs.

• Five 33’-4” long spans for an overall bridge length of 169’-6”.

• Continuous for HS-20 live loading.

• Bridge width of 82’ for four lanes of traffic, inside and outside shoulders, and sidewalks.

• Excellence in Engineering Design, Honorable Mention Award, Given by the NMSH&TD in 2003.
