Old Town Road Bridge Replacement Project
Broadwater County Commissioners
The Old Town Road Bridge Replacement Project, located at the southern end of Broadwater County along Old Town Road, continues to advance across three key bridge sites—East, Middle, and West—bringing the region closer to improved infrastructure and safer travel. Funded entirely through grants, this project has imposed no financial burden on local taxpayers.
Some highlights on construction progress include:
• East Bridge: Pile driving began in October, with most of the piles now completed. Riprap has been installed on the north abutment.
• Middle Bridge: Crews finished pile driving and completed the concrete pilecaps. Beams have been set in place and wingwalls have been constructed.
• West Bridge: The beams are set, the backwalls and wingwalls are constructed.
In the coming weeks, work will focus on:
• Completing pile driving and forming pilecaps on the East Bridge.
• Placing grout between beams on Middle Bridge.
• Pouring concrete curb on the West Bridge.
• Reshaping the roadway between the bridges.
The progress made to date marks a significant step toward the completion of the Old Town Road Bridge Replacement Project. With structural work well underway, residents can expect continued activity through the fall and winter as crews push toward the June completion deadline.
