Obstruction under the bridge

Wooden bridge

Rocky 04

Tuesday, September 1, 2009

Issue:

Wooden bridge on old mining road. Clearing of trees upstream of the bridge. Bridge structure is not stable. There is a lot of woody debris under the bridge. There is no rocks on the abutments to stabilize the banks. The banks are eroding as a result. Recent mining activity nearby.

Action Required:

The bridge should be repaired or replaced. Remove the woody debris under the bridge before they damage the bridge even more and create a bigger obstruction. The eroded banks should be stabilized.

Update:

A new bridge was built, no debris was found under de bridge. In some places we can see erosion on the banks. There is an ATV crossing a few meters from the bridge. A sign to educate the population should be installed to limit the passage in the creek.
