Committee approves inspection and load‑rating for Lumpark box culvert

Brainerd City Safety & Public Works Committee · June 3, 2025

Summary

The committee authorized Bolton and Meek to perform an initial load rating and inspection of a 4‑by‑10‑foot box culvert under Lumpark Road after MDOT identified it should be listed in the bridge inventory under state thresholds.

Public works director Mike Abigor told the committee that MDOT flagged a 4‑by‑10‑foot box culvert under Lumpark Road as meeting the state definition for a bridge and recommended it be included in the bridge inventory. Staff asked the committee to hire Bolton and Meek to perform the required initial load rating and inspection.

Abigor said the firm had performed similar work for other local bridges and staff recommended contracting with them to complete the analysis. Council approved the request by voice vote.

The inspection will determine the load rating and help staff understand whether repairs or restrictions are needed to comply with state inventory and safety standards.
