Commission approves temporary $30,838 repair for low‑traffic Bridge 108
Summary
Road & Bridge crews will proceed with a temporary repair to Bridge 108 on Elm Creek Road under a $30,838.19 quote from Ebert Construction after commissioners declined a $1.153 million full replacement for a low‑use bridge.
Road & Bridge Superintendent Josh Hinch reported that crews are finishing a stabilization project on Wells Creek Road and presented two options for Bridge 108 on Elm Creek Road: a temporary repair quoted by Ebert Construction for $30,838.19 or a full replacement estimated at $1,153,000.
Commissioners said they were not comfortable spending the replacement amount for a low‑traffic crossing that has alternate access. The board agreed to proceed with the temporary fix by Ebert Construction and signed related contracts for other bridge projects during the meeting.
Hinch also provided an updated list of bridges rated Poor and a multi‑year plan extending to 2045; commissioners discussed moving Bridge BSN 560 on Old K‑10 Road into the 2027 schedule and beginning design work with CFS.
