BRIDGE OVER TH$"iSOUTH FORK OF THE SANTA CLARA RIVER
DEPARTMENT: Public Works
BACKGROUND
The Council has previously expressed a desire to review proposed bridge
structures for aesthetic qualities. As you know, we have been proceeding on the
design of.the widening of San Fernando Road and Magic Mountain Parkway. We are
currently finished with our preliminary design and expect to submit the
completed plans and specifications to Caltrans during.this month.
There are two bridges being designed, one at Placerita Creek and one at the
South Fork of the Santa Clara River. Although we are somewhat limited in the
types of bridges we can use because of the standards dictated by Caltrans, we
thought it would be helpful to review these projects with the Council for your
comments and suggestions.
At the council session, we will provide slides of the type of bridges that.are
being proposed at these two locations.
RECOMMENDATION
The Council receive this information from staff and provide any input or
suggestions for consideration in the final design.
