  8. BRIDGE CONDITION Typical areas of section loss where the original splash guard was removed 100% section loss at some locations

  9. BRIDGE CONDITION Some areas underneath bridge need re-coating since the last project Areas of corrosion and section loss are common Concrete delamination on bridge concrete piers

  10. BRIDGE CONDITION 200 mm gap on sidewalk adjacent to structural steel Damaged structural elements due to impact Operator house to be upgraded using a suitable cladding system

  11. Rehabilitation Program • A 3-coat paint system is recommended. • Steel repairs are recommended including: • Plate repairs • Steel angle replacements • Gusset plate replacements • Lacing and batten plate replacements • Architectural repairs to the operator house are recommended
