Torpee Creek Bridge Replacement
Carter, WI back to portfolio
This structure was to replace two 48” culverts under STH ‘32’. The resulting design was a 24-ft. wide by 8-ft. high, bottomless (3-sided) bridge supported on steel piling. The final structure was a buried single span bridge with approximately 3-4 ft. of overburden.
Additional design features included:
- Decorative/Community Sensitive Design-Fieldstone Stream Signage
- Improvements to Stream Morphology for Fish Passage
- Provisions for Wildlife passage
- Temporary bypass Roadway to avoid detour
- Beam Guard
- Temporary Diversion Channel to accommodate flow during construction
