Scoping Notice
"Scoping" is for projects in the earliest stages of planning. At the scoping stage, detailed information on a project's design, alternatives, and environmental impacts does not yet exist. Sponsoring agencies are asking for comments from other agencies and from the public as to the scope of alternatives and environmental impacts that should be considered for further study. Send your comments to the contact person listed for the project by the date indicated. Read more about the regulations for a Scoping Notice.
The following Scoping Notices have been submitted for publication in this edition.
Notice of Scoping for Replacement of Bridge No. 06296: Waterside Lane over Hammock River
Address of possible action location: The proposed project takes place on Waterside Lane over Hammock River, approximately 0.3 miles south of U.S. Route 1.
Municipality where the action might be located: Clinton
Description: The existing bridge, constructed in 1994, consists of a two-span laminated timber deck superstructure supported by steel pipes and cantilever ends supporting the sidewalk. The existing bridge has an overall structure length of approximately 79 feet and has a maximum span length of approximately 36 feet. The Waterside Lane configuration over the bridge is composed of one 12-foot lane with no shoulder and it is the only vehicular access to the Clinton Town Beach separated from mainland by Hammock River.
The purpose of the proposed project is to address the structural deficiencies of the existing bridge (Bridge No. 06296) by replacing the structure with a single-span superstructure supported on new semi-integral abutments supported on piles. The bridge is in serious condition primarily due to the scour condition. The north abutment exhibits bulging stones along the abutment's lower half. The south abutment corners have missing mortar and displaced stones, and minor cracking can be found in the mortared joints.
