US 34/52 Bridge Replacements DB Project
Description – This project is a bridge bundle and includes the removal and replacement of two bridges in LaSalle County, IL. The bridge carrying US 34 over Little Indian Creek (SN 050-0041) is an existing 3 span, cast-in-place concrete T- beam bridge with spans 1 & 3 at 44’-9” and span 2 at 58’-3”. In August 2023, a load rating inspection was performed due to shear cracks discovered at center span in all five T- beams. A temporary support system was installed in span 2 and the bridge reopened in January 2024. The bridge carrying US 52 over the Fox River (SN 050-0058) is a five-span, reinforced concrete open spandrel deck arch bridge supported on reinforced concrete vaulted abutments at the ends and four intermediate reinforced concrete piers. Main spans 1 and 5 are 77’9” long and main spans 2 through 4 are 80’ long.
