Council hires engineering firm for Greenbrier Bridge rehabilitation; summer construction targeted
Summary
Council authorized a professional services agreement with Guy Engineering Services for inspection and design on the Greenbrier Bridge over Chigger Creek, with staff targeting a summer construction window while school is out.
The City Council authorized a professional services agreement on Nov. 9 with Guy Engineering Services, Inc., to perform inspection, design and bidding services for rehabilitation of the Greenbrier Bridge over Chigger Creek.
Engineering staff said the bridge is roughly 40 years old and has shown settlement in the approaches, prompting temporary repairs and a need for a more resilient solution. The consultant contract will include a comprehensive structural inspection and preparation of plans and bid documents, with staff aiming for a short construction closure next summer while schools are out to minimize traffic disruption.
The council approved the agreement after staff explained the project history, the inspection scope and the desired timing to complete more substantial repairs during a school-break window.
