Bridge 5 is 10' wide and 420' long and ranges from 8 to 18 feet above the existing grade, with a slope of 1.38%, as depicted in the profiles of the design drawings. Existing trestles will be removed and new trestles constructed within the same footprint. Newly constructed trestles will have a cooper rating of E-60 and an unfactored design load of 260 kips (see attached specifications and drawings). Access to the wetlands will be restricted. All work will be performed from one lane and shoulder of the road parallel to the line (Harrison Road), or from the top of the existing or new pile bents.
