This buried bridge was constructed to replace a 3 span steel bridge constructed in the 1930s and had to be sized to accommodate possible future restoration of the pedestrian trail back to rail traffic as is so often the case for these types of projects. The structure has a span of 47.9 ft and rise of 26.8 ft. The existing bridge was a local landmark, so the community wanted to make sure the replacement structure was visually appealing. This was accomplished with the use of mechanically stabilized earth (MSE) walls with colored concrete and incorporation of a decorative concrete railing to resemble the railing for the old bridge. The structure was build using precast concrete footings and an accelerated schedule to minimize the time required for a convoluted detour due to the undulating topography of the area. The project was completed ahead of schedule."},"13":{"Tstamp":"1774627977","field-type":"text-f","field-title":"Name","field-content":"joel hahm"}}
