The existing pony truss bridge was built in 1935 across <br /> Prairie Creek. The existing bridge is fracture critical, weight restricted at 9 tons, and is <br /> structurally deficient. The construction contract will include right-of-way acquisition, <br /> removal of the existing bridge, channel work, construction of a cast-in-place concrete <br /> slab bridge, concrete bridge railings, approach guardrails, and grading of the roadway. <br /> Discussion <br /> The environmental and design phases of the project are virtually complete. The <br /> NDOT wants to allocate the federal funds to this particular project yet this federal <br /> fiscal year. If Right-of-Way negotiations are successful, they hope to open bids in <br /> October and start construction this winter. <br /> The total project cost is estimated at $856,000. The project is being funded with federal <br /> aid, state-aid bridge funds, soft match bridge funds and an estimated county share of <br /> under $14,000. The estimate for the construction contract is confidential till after the bid <br /> letting, and thus is blacked out on any attachments. <br /> Recommendation <br /> Approve the PS & E package and authorize the chair to sign the resolution. <br /> r / ;/ <br /> Steven P.
