A. Project Description:
BR-0110
48819.1.1
N/A
This project is comprised of the Replacement of Bridge No. 060072 over Chocowinity
Creek on SR 1127 (Possum Track Road) in Beaufort County, North Carolina. The bridge
will be replaced on the existing alignment while detouring traffic offsite, see attached:
Figure 1- BR-0110 Project Location Map, and Figure 2 - BR-0110 Project Disturbance Map.
The proposed bridge will be approximately 95 feet long with a minimum clear roadway
width of 30.8 feet. The approach roadway will extend approximately 146 feet and 267 feet
on the west and east ends of the bridge, respectively. Two -foot paved shoulders will be
provided on each side.
B. Description of Need and Purpose:
Built in 1976 the bridge requires replacement due deterioration of structural elements. The
posted weight limits for the bridge are currently 24 Tons and 38 Tons for single vehicles
and truck tractors -semitrailers, respectively. The existing bridge is 68 feet long with a clear
roadway width of 28 feet. Bridge No. 072 has a sufficiency rating of 56.77 and is
categorized as "Not Deficient". However, the superstructure and substructure timber
elements show signs of deterioration, and have had priority maintenance repairs performed
on the substructure elements. This is a bridge replacement and safety improvement
project.
The replacement of Bridge No. 072 is part of the Growing Rural Economy and Agriculture
through Transportation and Technology Enhancement or Replacement in North Carolina
(GREATTER-NC) Project under the United States Department of Transportation's 2018
Better Utilizing Investments to Leverage Development (BUILD) Grant program. The
purpose of the grant and this bridge replacement project is to provide transportation
infrastructure to support economic development and improve physical and digital
connectivity in rural communities in North Carolina. The posted weight restriction on Bridge
No. 072 prohibits large or heavy vehicles, typically used in transporting agricultural and
manufactured products, from using the bridge. Vehicles above the posted weight must
detour 6 miles to avoid the bridge. Replacing the existing bridge will eliminate posted
weight limits by providing a safe crossing for all legal loads and will make accommodations
for broadband installation in order to support economic competitiveness.

D. Proposed Improvements
28. Bridge rehabilitation, reconstruction, or replacement or the construction of grade
separation to replace existing at -grade railroad crossings, if the actions meet the
constraints in 23 CFR 771.117(e)(1-6).
E. Special Project Information:
Alternatives Discussion:
No -Build — The no build alternative would result in eventually closing the road, which is
unacceptable given the volume traffic served by SR 1127 (Possum Track Road).
Rehabilitation — The bridge was constructed in 1976 and the timber materials within
the bridge are reaching the end of their useful life. Rehabilitation would require replacing
the timber component, which would constitute effectively replacing the bridge.
Onsite Detour — An onsite detour was not evaluated due to the presence of a feasible
offsite detour.
Staged Construction — Staged construction was not considered because of the
availability of an acceptable offsite detour.
New Alignment — Given that the alignment for SR 1127 is acceptable, a new alignment
was not considered as an alternative.
Offsite Detour (Preferred) — Traffic will be detoured offsite during the construction
period. The 4.9-mile offsite detour includes SR 1137 and NC HWY 33. NC HWY 33 and
SR 1127 (Possum Track Road) directly service Southside High School. Thus, Beaufort
County emergency services and Southside High School shall be contacted at least one
month prior to beginning of construction. The condition of all roads, bridges and
intersections on the offsite detour are acceptable without improvement and concurs with
the use of the detour. See attached Figure 3 - BR-0110 Detour Map.
Design Issues:
Traffic: Current: 610 ADT
TTST: 3%, Duals: 3%
Local Rural — NCDOT Sub -regional Tier Guidelines
Design Speed — 55 mph
No design exceptions required
Pedestrian and Bicycle Accommodations:
SR 1127 (Possum Track Road) is not part of a NC or US designated bike route. Thus,
bicycle and pedestrian accommodations are not required for this project.

Anticipated Permits or Consultation Requirements:
The proposed project has been designated as a Categorical Exclusion (CE) for the
purposes of National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) documentation. As a result, a
Nationwide Permit will likely be required from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers
(USAGE) for impacts to "Waters of the United States" resulting from this project. The
USACE holds the final discretion as to what permit will be required to authorize project
construction.
Public Involvement:
NCDOT will minimize any impact to businesses along SR 1127 during construction and
will try to expedite the construction time. The area is primarily rural residential and
agricultural regarding land use. A landowner notification was sent February 6, 2019. No
comments have been received to date.

Permiktir�g and funding Information was rewiexred for determining the level of archaeological input required low
state and federal laws. Based on the su bmitt "req uest For cultu ral rasourmes rewiew" form, the project Is state -
funded with federal permit i nt&acklon. As such, Section 105 ref the -National Historic R4?serwatlon Act will apply
and the United States Carps of Engineers [USAGE f spill serve a5 the lead federal agency. Next, construCtion design
and other dotty was ermined when applicable) to -defkne the character and extent of potential kvpatts to the
ground surfaces embracing the project locale. For t-he most part, the APE was prlmarilyr des4pwd to o,7p#ure any

archaeological sites or NRHP properties are located within the APE. Based ova cultural -historical factors, the APE is
considered to have a low potential for the dotumifirF#atlon of archaeological resources.
