County engineer reports progress on box-culvert bridge project, culvert repairs and two federal bridge projects
Summary
County Engineer Scott Miners said a box-culvert bridge project is being backfilled and crews expect to finish major pieces soon; he outlined culvert repairs on 420th Street and two federal bridge projects requiring environmental clearances and temporary easements.
Scott Miners, county engineer, told the board crews were hauling dirt for backfill on a box-culvert bridge project and that he expected the site to be substantially built in short order. "The box project's coming along. They were hauling dirt to the ... dirt for backfill yesterday," Miners said during his report.
Miners also described a smashed pipe on 420th Street (referred to in the discussion as 42X) with creek depth up to 18 feet, requiring a long structure and coordination with contractor D& for installation. He said two federal bridge projects (one on 410th Street in Center Township and one in Lynen Township) are in the program and that the county would pursue all required clearances and possibly environmental consultants; he added that the Leland Bridge recently cleared a key hurdle.
The engineer discussed scheduling for line painting and hoped major projects would be complete and painted well before winter and harvest season. No new funding requests were approved at the meeting; these updates were informational and flagged for follow-up.
