Document Description
The purpose of this project is to clean, paint, and prevent future damage to Freeman Road Bridge {Bridge No. 28C0389). The project is needed to remove rust from the bridge as well as preserve the structural condition and remaining service life of the bridge. The maintenance-preventative work will consist of implementing a lead compliance plan and work area monitoring program if needed, blast cleaning, repainting superstructure steel members, and applying corrosion inhibitor. Additionally, the project will backfill with concrete the gap in the embankment concrete slope paving around two steel columns, remove unsound concrete and clean and paint exposed reinforcing bars with a rust inhibitor along the exterior face of the bridge concrete curbs and deck, "and replace pourable deck joint seals at abutments. A working platform with scaffolds and an enclosure system will be required to capture paint removal debris. Minor ground disturbance, bank disturbance, and vegetation removal at the ends of the abutments are needed. Real estate transactions may be necessary. A temporary traffic control plan will be implemented, staging area(s) will be placed away from sensitive areas, and appropriate Best Management Practices (BMPs) will be implemented to protect the creek.
