Site work, paving and renovation of a bridge / tunnel in Glastonbury, Connecticut. Conceptual plans call for the renovation of a bridge / tunnel; for site work for a bridge / tunnel; and for paving for a bridge / tunnel.

Over the past 20 +/- years, the Town has successfully utilized the Federal and Local Bridge Program to remove and replace five bridges while realizing 80% grant funding reimbursement. At present, there are no additional bridge structures that meet eligibility requirements for the Federal Local Bridge Program, however, there are bridges which may meet eligibility criteria for the State Local Bridge Program which provides 50% reimbursement of design and construction costs. This proposal assumes Town application and approval under the State Local Bridge Program. Requested funding in FY2024 represents anticipated costs for technical grant application assistance and subsequent design of recommended bridge repairs. Based upon CONNDOT inspection reports, potential initiatives may include parapet/super structure repair to the New London Turnpike bridge over Roaring Brook and measures to address scour concerns at the double steel culvert carrying Roaring Brook under Weir Street. Future cost figures to be refined upon design/permitting completion and detailed structure evaluation. Cost figures do not reflect anticipated 50% State grant reimbursement. As of September 10, 2024, this project is included in the City's 2024-2028 Capital Improvement Program (CIP).
