The bridge was destroyed and isolated many residents in the community. Temporary pipes are now
providing service on SR 1608, however a more durable and reliable permanent structure is needed soon.
Bridge 430026 will be replaced on its approximate pre-existing alignment with a modern cored slab bridge,
but some work will be beyond existing disturbed right-of-way.

2b. Describe the overall project in detail, including the type of equipment to be used:
Heavy equipment will be used including drilling rig, dump trucks and track-hoes to build new bridge
foundation away from the creek and stabilize the creek banks in the vicinity of the abutments with rip rap.
