County engineer reports bridge bids; commissioners approve legal load posting updates
Summary
Bids were opened for three bridge projects with U.S. Bridge Division submitting low bids; the engineer also presented multiple legal load posting reductions based on updated consultant load ratings, and Selma Road bridge was noted for replacement planning.
John Burr, Clark County Engineer, reported the low bids from U.S. Bridge Division of Ohio Bridge Corporation for three bridge projects and asked staff to evaluate the bids further. The board acknowledged the bid opening and referred evaluation to staff.
Burr also explained that updated professional consultant load-rating summaries recommended reduced legal load postings on several county bridges because many structures are 60–70 years old; he said the Selma Road bridge is slated for replacement in the next few years. Commissioners approved the resolution to update legal load postings per the consultant reports.
