Pleasant Hill Road Tender

Project Limits: Milepost 4.67 to 4.73
Federal Classification: Rural Minor Collector (08)
Project Description: This project will replace the existing
culvert that failed in 2021.
Basis for Project: The10’ diameter corrugated metal culvert
failed creating a large pothole in the roadway. In the fall of 2021
the failed culvert was removed and the County’s temporary
bridge was installed to allow traffic to utilize the roadway. This
project will design a permanent structure to replace the culvert
and allow for fish passage.
Environmental/Safety Considerations: The failed culvert caused a large sinkhole which required Pleasant
Hill Road to be closed to thru traffic. This closure forces emergency services to detour around the area
potentially increasing response times.
The work will need to meet all permitting requirements to work in and around water which would include
mitigation for disturbed wetlands, working during the prescribed fish window and correction of fish passage
barriers.
Funding Sources: This project is being funded with FEMA Emergency funds (75%) and State DEM funds
(12.5%). The remaining match will come from local road funds
