Scope

The design for Bridge Street Bridge is underway. This rehabilitation consists of removing and replacing the existing concrete bridge railing, bridge deck, sidewalks, and approach slabs. New decorative concrete bridge railing and lighting will also be installed to closely match the original construction. The bearings at the ends of the bridge will be removed and reconstructed to eliminate the expansion joints. The concrete beams and piers will be cleaned and patched, but no channel work is anticipated.

Bridge Street Bridge is a historic bridge in Elkhart, IN. This bridge was originally constructed by William S. Moore in 1939.

 The design is to be completed in August of 2008. The bidding will be in the Fall of 2008 and construction will begin in the Spring of 2009.
