MnDOT requests responses for a feasibility study and preliminary design for State Project (SP) 8701-40. SP 8701-40 is the repair or replacement of Bridge No. 91795 located on Trunk Highway (TH) 23 0.3 miles NE of junction with TH 274 south of Granite Falls, MN. Bridge No. 91795 is a 672’ long 13’ diameter corrugated steel culvert that was constructed in 1978 approximately 75’ below roadbed. An inspection shortly after the bridge was completed showed localized deflections that developed during or just after construction. Since then, the structure has continued to deform along with additional signs of wear including heavy rusting, additional deflections, and seepage. Due to the size and depth of this culvert this project calls for analyzing different and creative methods of repair/replacement. Project Goal The goal of this project is to assist the State in developing and evaluating multiple alternatives to repair or replace, or a combination of both for Bridge No. 91795 under TH 23 and Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF) railway for SP 8701-40.
