: This project consisted of replacing
and relocating an old county bridge that was narrow and structurally unsound. The relocation

bridge is a single 26 meter span
on breastwall abutments. The framing consists of 6 Type CB 840 x 1220
box beams with a composite concrete deck.
Abutments are founded on
rock. Construction was completed
in the fall of 1996. This project provided an aesthetically
pleasing solution to an existing bridge that was hydraulically and
structurally inadequate. The cost
of the bridge and approaches was $191,020. The
