Scope- Detour Route Reconditioning (NFSRs 216, 217, 35, 126, 384, 5023) The Detour Route Reconditioning includes activities that will prepare the 3 designated roads and the 3 alternate roads for use as a detour route. The work will consist of reconstruction staking, clearing, grubbing, culvert replacement, deep patching fill slope failures, road reconditioning, aggregate surfacing, pavement overlay, pothole patching and various other road maintenance activities. Contractor must complete the Detour Route Reconditioning as highlighted in the Work Summary Prior to closing Tellico River Road. Scope- Bridge Replacement The Bald River Falls Bridge project will replace the existing 3-span, 200 ft bridge with a new 2-span structure. The existing structure is a two lane, 20 ft wide bridge comprised of concrete abutments, steel girders, concrete deck and 2 concrete piers. The new structure will be 170 ft long two-lane structure with sidewalk and observation deck. The structure will be founded on bedrock with shallow foundation spread footings. The abutments/wingwalls will be concrete and will include rock anchors for support. The superstructure will be concrete box beams. A single 3-column center concrete pier will be located at center span. Additional work will include clearing, grubbing, bridge rail, guardrail, masonry and paving. Tellico River Road will be closed during construction. The awardee will be responsible for maintaining the detour route through the life of the contract. Scope- Ongoing Detour Maintenance (NFSR 216,217, 35) Ongoing maintenance will only occur on the 3 designated detour roads; not the 3 alternate roads. Ongoing Detour Maintenance includes driving the detour route once a week and after storm events to ensure the safety of the road. It will include up to 4 road gradings (inclusive of the final grading) at the discretion of the CO, 2 mowing�s, cleaning of culverts as needed, and removal of downed trees. Ongoing Road Maintenance is subject to the 800 series of specifications attached to the Forest Service Supplemental Specifications. It is expected that the Ongoing Road Maintenance will continue through the life of the closure of Tellico River Road. Once Tellico River Road is reopened to public traffic, the contractor will perform a final detour route grading. Grading instances 1-3 will not require compaction, however final grading will require roller compaction and proper moisture content.
