Body
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION
The City of South San Francisco ("City") has an ongoing Bridge Preventative Maintenance Program (BPMP) for the Grand Avenue Bridges since they fall under the Caltrans Bridge Inspection Program (Attachment 1- Grand Avenue OH Bridges Location Map). The BPMP was created to help local agencies extend the life of their bridges by performing certain activities that have been preapproved by the Federal Highway Administration.
The Bridge Preventative Maintenance Program Goals are to:
1. Maintain the existing inventory of bridges in a structurally safe and serviceable condition.
2. Correct minor structural deficiencies early in a bridge's life, rather than wait until a bridge has major problems requiring costly rehabilitation, reconstruction or replacement.
3. Extend the service lives of existing bridges.
4. Make efficient use of limited resources.
Caltrans inspects the bridges every two years and submits its findings to the City. City Staff determines the appropriate actions based upon the reports and Caltrans work recommendations.
A summary of the recent bridge rehabilitation history and planned projects is outlined in the following table:
