The project consists of the replacement of an existing culvert located on Westcott Road in the Town of Peru, Clinton County, NY. The culvert conveys the Salmon River from west to east. The existing culvert is a double-barrel culvert, consisting of one (1) 10'-0†diameter corrugated metal pipe (CMP), running approx. 51 LF, and one (1) 9'-6â€x 13'-0â€+/- elliptical culvert, running approx. 44 LF. The double-barrel culvert will be replaced with a bridge structure spanning 61 LF (between the centerlines of the abutments).
The project will involve the construction of a temporary road to maintain access on Westcott Road, construction of cast-in-place bridge abutment foundations, installation of pre-cast bridge components (manufactured and delivered to the site by others), and reconstruction of Westcott Road. The project will also include the removal of the existing culvert system and recreation of the natural stream bed for the Salmon River. The bridge structure, abutments, and wingwalls are pre-formed structures to be supplied by InQuik Bridges (provided by CMC Bridge Systems). The bridge supplier is responsible for delivery to the site and for the material costs of the concrete for the bridge deck, abutments, and wingwalls, which are not to be included in the bid. The bidders are responsible for the installation costs of the concrete for the pre-manufactured bridge components, the forming, rebar, concrete, and construction of the cast-in-place foundations, as well as all of the sitework.
