Outstanding Projects for 2006

Outstanding Special Project for 2006
Flood of June 25, 2006 - Laurel / Seaford

Project Description

South District Areas 1 & 2 received 13" - 18" of rain in a 24 hour period. This caused catastrophic flooding to occur, trapping residents and washing out bridges, roadways, guardrails and covered many locations with floating debris and various hazardous materials.

This project involved the total replacement of both Br 3-204 and Br 3-221. Bridge 3-204 was replaced with a concrete box culvert and cast-in-place wingwalls. Bridge 3-221 was replaced with a 3 sided precast concrete frame with precast concrete wingwalls. Riprap was placed for scour protection in the stream and on the banks for both structures. The approach roadways and guardrail were reconstructed as necessary.
