Summary

Road & Bridge Supervisor Josh Hinch presented plans for Bridge #640 on Old K-18 Road, saying the project budget is $880,000 and an accepted construction bid is $722,000; about 1 acre of right-of-way remains to be acquired before work can start.

Road & Bridge Supervisor Josh Hinch told the Wabaunsee County Commission on Jan. 12 that plans for Bridge #640 on Old K-18 Road are in place and the county has an accepted construction bid of $722,000 against an $880,000 project budget. Hinch said about one acre of additional right-of-way must be acquired before construction can begin.

Hinch said the county expects to receive completed county-wide bridge inspection data from engineers soon, which could identify follow-up items affecting scheduling. Commissioners present did not take a final construction authorization vote during the meeting; Hinch described next steps as right-of-way acquisition followed by contracting and construction scheduling.
