[ODOT Info - A&E Consultants]

To Those Interested in the ODOT Bridge and Tunnel Programs,

The 2017 Bridge Condition Report & Tunnel Data is now posted on the following web page:

http://www.oregon.gov/ODOT/Bridge/Documents/Bridge-Condition-Report-2017.pdf

The Executive Summary is attached.

The 2017 Bridge Condition Report includes several significant updates and enhancements to improve transparency in the Bridge Program and inform stakeholders and highway users of future serious needs and risks to  mobility.  The following list highlights some changes in the latest version of the Bridge Condition Report:


  1.  Bridge needs were updated using a model that is consistent with the Rough Roads 2 analysis presented in the 2017 legislative session.
  2.  Bridge Program accomplishments are presented in two funding areas, as well as a update on seismic improvements due to funding in HB 2017.
  3.  Bridge Condition Summaries by District tables and the appendices are only available online this year.  They can be accessed by clicking the "hot links" on the title of each appendix listed in the Table of Contents on page 3 of the Report.

 ODOT Public Affairs Unit is preparing a public notice announcing this new version of the Bridge Condition Report to be released to the public soon.
