Deck joints have deteriorated allowing water to drain onto the steel beams
Project Need Existing railing does not meet INDOT standards Slope walls are eroded and in poor condition Abutments do not have adequate support length based on
AASHTO criterion
Existing U.S. 50 Classified as urban principal arterial Posted speed of 30 mph Design speed of 40 mph Located within Lawrenceburg Adjacent to newly constructed bridge carrying traffic west
Flat level terrain
Existing U.S. 50 Asphalt travel lanes 11ft. wide
Asphalt shoulders 3ft wide Overlay and repair done in 1976 Urban setting, built up, primarily commercial use
Access drives located immediately off both ends of structure
Existing structure over Tanners Creek
Existing piers in good condition Light spalling and deterioration Some rust damage in and around bearings
5 spans: 81’-3”, 105’-7 ½ “, 113’-9”, 105’-7 ½ , and 81’3” Built-up plate girder with reinforced concrete deck Asphalt overlay
