Perrier Road bridge to close for wing-wall work; highway staff report maintenance progress
Summary
Work on the Perrier Road bridge will close the structure for two to three weeks at the end of March for wing-wall construction. Highway staff reported chipper operations, contractor scheduling, and small equipment upgrades to reduce recurring failures.
Public works staff reported that Parent Construction will pour new wing walls on the Perrier Road bridge and that the bridge will be closed for two to three weeks at the end of March while the work occurs; the board asked that advance signage and an email/website notice be issued. Staff said they had borrowed two chippers and undertaken brush-cutting and light maintenance while responding to equipment issues such as a failed compressor regulator, which was addressed with an automatic drain valve purchase to reduce future damage.
Board members also discussed ongoing monitoring of a recurring slide on Morgan Horse Farm Road; core drilling will be done to determine scope and cost and members acknowledged grant funding may be needed to pay for extensive repairs. Staff committed to present cost estimates and any maintenance/service contracts at the next meeting.
