CAL-AMA-49 Mokelumne River Bridge Upgrade Project

PROJECT FACTS

Description: The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) proposes to upgrade the Mokelumne River Bridge (Bridge Number 26-0012) on State Route 49 in Amador and Calaveras counties by replacing the non-standard bridge rails with new rails that meet current standards and widening shoulders to 4 feet on either side of the traveled way to enhance the mobility of pedestrians and bicyclists. Purpose: The purpose of this project is to upgrade the bridge rails to meet current crash safety standards and to widen the bridge to enhance the mobility of pedestrian and bicycle traffic.

 

Need: The Structure Replacement and Improvement Needs Report (STRAIN), prepared by the Office of Structures Maintenance and Investigations, has identified the need to upgrade the nonstandard concrete baluster bridge rails. Additionally, the existing shoulder width on the bridge does not meet the needs of bicycle and pedestrian traffic.
