Plans - NP ACAD BRG(2).pdf

This document is a detailed Plans for Proposed Project issued by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) for bridge and roadway repair work at Acadia National Park in Hancock County, Maine.

The project, designated ME NP ACAD BRG(2), encompasses three schedules of work totaling approximately 0.05 miles of roadway and three bridge rehabilitation projects. Schedule A involves reconstruction of a 0.03-mile segment of Paradise Hill Road and rehabilitation of the Paradise Hill Bridge (Structure 1700-010P), including concrete repair, waterproofing membrane installation, structural backfill, asphalt pavement reconstruction, and stone masonry repointing. Schedule B covers a 0.02-mile segment of Paradise Hill Road and the Maine Route 233 Bridge (Structure 1700-020P), with similar rehabilitation scope. Schedule C addresses the Frazer Creek Bridge (Structure 1700-025P), requiring concrete joint repairs, post-tension grout pocket repairs, riprap placement, and miscellaneous cleaning work. Construction specifications reference FP-24 standards and AASHTO LRFD Bridge Design Specifications. The project includes detailed erosion and sediment control measures, temporary traffic control with detour routing through existing park roads, construction sign requirements, and standard details for pavement transitions, fiber roll installation, and temporary sign mounting. Design load assumptions are based on bridge inspection reports. Project coordination involves multiple Federal Highway Administration offices with the National Park Service and requires compliance with environmental controls including prohibited discharges, hazardous waste management, and structured inspection procedures during all phases of construction.
