Bethel Township, Fulton County
This project involved replacement of the existing Barnett’s Run Road Bridge over Barnett’s Run. The existing structure was a single lane concrete slab bridge on reinforced concrete abutments. The new structure is a two-lane, precast concrete box culvert having a 22’-0” curb to curb width and a clear span of 28’-0”.
Safety of the adjoining intersection was increased by widening the structure to accept two lanes of traffic. The chosen structure pushed the limits for the size of box culverts. By pushing the envelope with this project, the Township saved over $150,000.
[The] entire staff did a wonderful job! We truly appreciate all the hard work in making our bridge project a success and something we can be very proud to have in our township. Bev Sherwood Burns, Supervisor Blacklick Township
