Background

Tw~ of the three main support beams and their cross members were
split and the third support member vas pulled from the bridge's
concrete abutment. Due to this extensive damage, the bridge was
Immediately closed. Prior to the earthquake.. the District: vas
planninq to raise and modify the existing bridge to accommodate the

Improvements~ The District will be responsible .for all new
retaining wall costs as the need for this vork is caused by the
creek improvement project. The city's Public Works Inspector viII
monitor all bridge related construction to ensure compliance with
Palo Alto ~tandards. No substantial change in the scope of work
will be made durill9 construction 'Which raises the total cost. unless
the District receives prior written approval from the city.
The project. was expected to begin this summer; however, the
District has IlQt been able to ootain construction right-of-way
agreements from all the residents along Adobe Creek~ As a result~
the city vas notified by the District that the start of
construction would be postponed until spring 19'91.
The existing bridge can not he repaired due to the poor condition
of the wood deck and supports which have rotted. However, City
crews will construct a temporary wood bridge deck approximately one
foot above the existing deck -with asphalt ramps on both ends. The
temporary bridge will be opened by September l~ 1990, and will bE
removed next spring when creek construction begins. Although the
cost of materials is estimated to be approximately $2~OO'O, most of
the lumber can be salvaged.
