Summary:
The City performs an inspection, condition rating, and scour screening of 118 City-maintained bridges with spans of 20 feet and greater every other year as required by the Kansas Department of Transportation (KDOT). In 2025, this inspection was performed, and 50 bridges were identified for maintenance. This annual project includes maintenance of these bridges based on the priority ranking identified in the 2025 Biennial Bridge Inspection report. Additionally, this project will allow for the necessary maintenance of culverts and other large stormwater structures with spans of less than 20 feet, and City-owned retaining walls.
The estimated cost for this project is $125,000. Costs may include design, surveys, staff time, inspection services, capital repairs and maintenance, and construction. Capital repairs and maintenance may include filling voids, repairing approach slabs and sidewalks, patching spalled areas, repairing reinforced concrete boxes, replacing relief joints, replacing expansion devices, repairing and/or replacing guardrails and fencing, adding polymer overlays to the bridge decks, placing riprap, repairing and/or replacing retaining walls, repairing and/or replacing culverts and other large stormwater structures, and other items deemed necessary.
