Lewis Avenue Bridge

ADKO Engineering provided preliminary engineering and PS&E for the Lewis Avenue Bridge, Structural Steel Truss Tied Arch in Atascadero. This aesthetically pleasing Tubular Steel Pipe Arch Truss Bridge in the City of Atascadero over Atascadero Creek. The bridge is approximately 164 feet long and 64 feet wide. The bridge’s concrete deck and structural members will be supported by suspension cables. This type of structure was used due to hydrology clearance which kept the deck thickness to a minimum. The project included advance planning studies, bridge PS&E, geotechnical investigation, environmental, surveying and mapping, hydraulic/scour evaluation, traffic control, roadway modifications, stage construction, utility relocations, drainage, public relations, right-of-way appraisals and acquisitions, and coordination with Caltrans and local agencies.

Maybert Road Bridge Replacement

The historic Maybert Bridge was eligible under the National Register of Historic Places. The bridge was built in 1895 and has a rich and colorful history. The bridge connected the historical mining towns of Washington and Maybert (The town of Maybert no longer exists) and it has far exceeded its useful life. The newbridge was federally funded under the Highway Bridge Program since it has a sufficiency rating of 5 and was classified as a structurally deficient (SD) and functionally obsolete (FO). The worse rated bridge in the state of California. The historic bridge has been carefully lifted after it has been braced and salvaged and found a home in Nevada City as a pedestian bridge.
