Title

Girvan over Olney Creek Bridge Replacement Project

Description

The City of Redding (City) proposes to replace the Girvan Road Bridge (O6C-0341) over Olney Creek. The purpose of the project is to improve safety conditions for vehicle, bicycle, and pedestrian traffic and to improve the hydraulic capacity of Olney Creek at the bridge. The existing bridge, built in 1960, has narrow travel lanes and no shoulders for pedestrian and bicycle use. The existing bridge, which is 32 feet wide and 100 feet long, would be replaced with a 52-foot-wide and 109-foot-long bridge. The new bridge would incorporate two 12-foot lanes, 8-foot shoulders, and 6-foot sidewalks. The roadway will be modified on the east and west sides of the bridge to conform to the new bridge width. The project includes: sidewalk improvements; ADA compliant curb, gutter, and ramps; and lighting improvements. Construction work will consist of vegetation removal, access ramps, temporary clear water diversion, bridge demolition, earthwork, falsework, drilling, vibratory hammers, trenching, utility relocation, drainage installation and modification, bridge construction, rock slope protection, revegetation, paving, striping, and sign replacement/installation. The improvements will be constructed in the City right of way and within easement areas. The bridge will be constructed over two seasons, with one side of the bridge being removed and reconstructed the first year, and the second side of the bridge being removed and reconstructed the following year. Traffic control will consist of a single lane of alternating traffic, controlled by temporary signals. Construction is anticipated to begin in 2027 and continue through 2028.
