State Route 29 Sulphur Creek and York Creek Bridge Rail Replacement Project

Sulphur Creek Bridge (BR# 21-0016) Napa County Route 29 PM 28.43

Sulphur Creek Bridge Project Map 2019-10

Work Description

  •  Replace the existing non-standard bridge rails with standard bridge rails
  • A form liner will be used for architectural treatment of the replacement barriers to provide an appearance of stone.  The existing decorative street lamps will be reused together with the historic plaques
  • To eliminate visual impacts, crash cushions will not be installed at the ends of the bridge rails
  • Additional right of way will be required
  • Two alternatives are under consideration for Sulphur Creek Bridge: Alternatives 2 and 3 (Alternative 1 was eliminated, because it required one-way traffic control)

Sulphur Creek Bridge Alternative 2

SULPHUR ALT. 2 SIMULATED-LOOKING SOUTH

  • This alternative proposes to widen the northbound side of the bridge 5.5 feet.  This alternative provides standard 8-foot shoulder on northbound, and 3 to 7-foot shoulders on the southbound side of the bridge
  • During construction, this alternative provides space on the bridge for two-way traffic
  • Construction may be completed in one stage

Sulphur Creek Bridge Alternative 3 (Currently Not Programmed)

SULPHUR ALT. 3 SIMULATED-LOOKING SOUTH

  • This alternative proposes to widen the northbound side of the bridge 16-18 feet, and to widen the southbound side 12 feet.  This alternative provides 7 to 8-foot shoulder on northbound and 1 to 2-foot shoulders on the southbound side of the bridge
  • Includes replacement of the existing pedestrian walkways in both directions of travel
  • Proposes to install two sets of rails in each direction of travel: one see-through set adjacent to traffic lanes; and one solid concrete rail with architectural treatment, simulating the existing stone rails
  • Includes provisions to lengthen the northbound SR 29 to westbound Mitchell Drive left turn lane
  • This alternative provides space on the bridge for two-way traffic during construction
  • Construction may require work in two separate years due to extensive widening
