SUBJECT: Revised bridge drawings for the replacement of Bridge No. 60 (Alfred
Cunningham Bridge) over the Trent River on US 70 Business (East Front Street);
Craven County; TIP Project B-2532; Federal Aid Project No. BRSTP-070B(4);
State Project No.8.1172401; WBS 32649.1.1.
Dear Mr. Gregory:
Please find the attached four revised copies of the US Coast Guard (USCG) drawing for this
project. The revisions to the bridge are due to the design modifications to the Bascule spans.
Each Bascule span is now 8'6" longer and the total length of the approach spans have been
shortened accordingly. The temporary channel is narrowed from 66' to 51'. The overall length of
the bridge is unchanged.
During construction, the pier of the existing swing span will be utilized as a temporary support
for the new Bascule spans. This detail has been added to the drawings.
