Description

The work to be done consists, in general, of removing and replacing three structurally deficient bridges: the Reedley Main Canal Bridge on Englehart Avenue, 0.04 miles north of American Avenue; the Travers Creek Bridge on Lincoln Avenue, 0.55 miles east of Alta Avenue; and the Travers Creek Bridge on Parlier Avenue, 0.52 miles west of Alta Avenue. Full street closure will be required for the construction of each of the three bridges, and a detour will be provided. In channel work will commence after the Alta Irrigation District’s irrigation season in August or September of 2024.

The Reedley Main Canal Bridge on Englehart Avenue will be replaced by a bridge with a width of 35 feet and a length of 37 feet. The existing bridge structure will be replaced with a two-span cast-in-place concrete box culvert. The work also consists of installing concrete bridge barriers, reconstructing the bridge approaches and adding shoulders, cold planing and overlaying existing pavement, constructing driveways, installing crash cushions, and in-channel work. Two trees will be removed.

The Travers Creek Bridge on Lincoln Avenue will be replaced by a bridge with a width of 63 feet and a length of 24 feet. The existing bridge structure will be replaced with a cast-in-place bottomless concrete box culvert with a foundation of concrete footings. The work also consists of installing concrete bridge barriers, reconstructing bridge approaches and adding shoulders, cold planing and overlaying existing pavement, constructing driveways, installing drainage pipe between the channel and ditch, and installing rock slope protection in the channel. One stump will be removed.

The Travers Creek Bridge on Parlier Avenue will be replaced by a bridge with a width of 49 feet and a length of 29 feet. The existing bridge structure will be replaced with a two-span cast-in-place concrete box culvert. The work also consists of installing concrete bridge barriers, reconstructing bridge approaches and adding shoulders, constructing driveways, installing crash cushions, and installing concrete slope protection and rock slope protection in the channel. Approximately eleven trees will be removed.

The engineer's estimate range is $4,400,000 to $4,800,000.
