98216 | Michigan Ave over Little Crum Creek (CB# 210) (Bridge) (Ridley Township, Delaware County)

This project is a bridge rehabilitation/replacement of the County owned Michigan Avenue bridge over Little Crum Creek, which is poor condition. The bridge is posted with a 12 ton weight restriction and requires continual maintenance to remain open. Various elements of the bridge are in poor condition. The project needs are listed below: 1) Load Carrying Capacity - Eliminate the "poor condition" designation. - Accommodate school buses, local delivery vehicles and emergency vehicles. 2) Structure Integrity - - Bring the facility up to current design standards. The existing 12-ton carrying capacity restricts the type of traffic that can use the bridge. With an ADT of 6,583 vehicles per day, the bridge no longer provides the necessary community link that it once did. The bridge is a concrete slab that is in poor condition with heavy spalling revealing corroded reinforcement steel, especially near the deck drains. In addition, the substructure of the bridge is in poor condition with exposed, heavily scaled abutments. The channel rating is poor as a result of the alignment resulting in heavy scaling and pockets of undermining at the exposed north abutment. The existing safety features associated with the bridge do not meet PennDOT standards.
Funding for this project will be drawn down from the County Bridge Line Item (MPMS# 95447) at the appropriate time.
A final alternative for bridge rehabilitation or replacement is determined upon federal National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) or state Categorical Exclusion clearance.
