APPROXIMATE FEE $100,000
PURPOSE AND NEED
The primary purpose of this bridge replacement project is to replace the bridge and approaches on US 60 over Hays Branch approximately 0.4 mile Northeast of the junction with KY 174 in order to improve the safety of the traveling public. This section of US 60 is a heavily traveled route, which is largely utilized by motorists traveling to and from Morehead, KY. Many of these motorists are students attending Morehead State University or are traveling to Morehead in order to access Interstate 64. This project is needed because the existing structure has a sufficiency rating of 23.4/100.0, which indicates that it is deficient. KYTC’s policy is to consider replacement of structures when their sufficiency rating falls below 50.0/100.0. The structurally deficient existing 34 feet long R.C.D.G. span bridge is on a 30-degree skew. The deck underside has cracking with efflorescence. Railings are too low and have impact damage and the curbs are heavily scaled. Additionally, the beams have widespread cracking and some spalling with exposed steel showing section loss (especially exterior beams). The upstream exterior beam is heavily deteriorated at the bearing area of Abutment 2. The stone masonry abutments have heavy cracking and some sloughing.
