General Project Narrative: This project involves the replacement of an existing 25.5 foot bridge with a 25'-4"x 9'-5"aluminum box culvert with inlet/outlet sills and headwall and endwall. The existing
(Description of Minimization of Water bridge has a timber deck and timber vertical abutments with steel 1-beams. The proposed culvert sills will be inset into the inlet and outlet approximately 2',and will have low
Quality Impacts) flow notches to mimic the existing stream width. Upstream and downstream stream banks will be stabilized with Class II rip rap. Grassed shoulders and fill slopes will be
provided with final roadway section.

Wells Creek
The project consists of replacing 25.5' long Bridge that has a Sufficiency Rating of 58.24 in Alamance
County. The current structure was constructed with a timber deck and timber vertical abutments and
steel beams in 1950. These structures typically have a life span of 50 years and this structure is 72 years
old and has reached the end of its life cycle.
The proposed structure consists of an Aluminum Box Culver with a single span of 25'-4"width by 9'-5"
high culvert. This structure meets the hydrological requirements of the drainage area, slightly
decreasing both the FEMA 100 Year and 50 Year design backwater. The aluminum culvert slightly
increases the hydraulic opening area compared to the existing bridge. The use of this type of structure
will reduce the construction time from 120 days to 60 days as compared to that of a bridge. The culvert
is anticipated to function similar to that of the existing vertical abutment bridge relative to flow depths,
flow area,velocities and flow width through the structure. Flow depths in the culvert will be maintained
by use of low flow sills at the inlet and outlet of the culvert. The sills will be notched 1 foot in depth to
mimic the effective low flow width of the existing stream channel up and downstream. Culverts have
lower construction and maintenance cost over the life cycle of the structure as compared to a bridge.
Current budget constraints require us to take the most economical option that meets environmental
and safety concerns.
Typically,the length of a bridge will be much longer than that of a culvert's width. Increasing the bridge
length creates several issues that must be overcome. If a bridge is utilized there must be at least four
feet of clearance under the bridge to allow access for maintenance workers at the abutment. At
crossings where new bridges are recommended,this often requires NCDOT to raise the roadway grade
to maintain or improve clearance under the bridge. Raising the roadway grade can potentially impact
crossing hydraulics. For storm events that overtop the existing road, raising the road grade typically
results in increases to that events backwater. Wells Creek is located in a FEMA Limited Detailed Study
and the 100 Year backwater is regulated. Although a Limited Study does allow for increases in the 100
Year backwater without having to provide a CLOMR (Conditional Map Revision)to FEMA, it is typical
NCDOT practice to avoid increases in backwater, where practical, due to potential liabilities/impacts to
upstream properties. Per the FEMA model and our analysis, Wells Creek does overtop Greensboro
Chapel Hill Road SR 1005 during a 100 Year event at this crossing therefore maintaining the existing
roadway grade with a culvert benefits the crossing by maintaining, or slightly reducing,the backwater.
Smaller streams in the Piedmont area are often best suited for culverts to minimize raising the roadway
grade.
Justification for bridge to culvert:
• The basin drainage area (3.1 sq miles) and estimated discharges are compatible with the
hydraulic performance of a culvert structure. And as mentioned,typically prefer culverts due to
longer service life and reduced maintenance vs a bridge.
• The proposed 25'-4" wide culvert and 25.5' long bridge (with vertical timber abutments) have
similar hydraulic type openings and properties. Hydraulic function including backwater, outlet
velocities, structure opening,flow depths and flow widths, etc will remain similar, if not slightly
improved.
• The inlet and outlet channels look stable. So we would anticipate the same with culvert.
