Description
The existing bridge structure was replaced with a two-span
multi-steel curved girder. LDG incorporated unique aesthetic
treatments to accommodate the bridge’s environmentally sensitive
location.
The design of the superstructure was complicated by the tight
horizontal curvature of the roadway that extended across the
bridge. To accommodate this, curved girders, with an average
radius of 150 feet, were used on the structure. This required a
three-dimensional finite element design for the superstructure.
