SECTION 1: STATEMENT OF PROJECT

Introduction

South Century Drive is an arterial roadway located in south Deschutes County with an average daily traffic

volume of approximately 8,351 vehicles per day (2023). The roadway connects the community of Sunriver

to US97, and provides principal access to recreational opportunities in the Deschutes National Forest. The

South Century Dr Bridge #16181 is located at Milepost 1.356 and carries vehicle traffic on South Century

Dr over the Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF) railroad. The existing bridge structure is a three-span

concrete slab bridge constructed in 1976, which has a sufficiency rating of 77.2 (2024) and has no load

restrictions. Notable deficiencies of the existing bridge include:

 Premature deterioration of concrete substructure elements (abutments, wing walls, columns, bent

caps, etc.)

 Premature deterioration of concrete railing and parapets

 Cracking within the cast-in-place concrete deck

 Spalling within prestressed concrete slabs

 Bridge approach settlement

 Substandard guardrail and appurtenant elements

Deschutes County Road Department (“Department”) is preparing to rehabilitate the existing S Century Dr

Bridge to salvage the existing substructure and superstructure elements in order to prolong the service life

of the structure. The total project cost, including engineering and construction, is estimated to be

$2,410,000.00. The total estimated project cost is obligated in the Department’s 2026-2030 Capital

Improvement Plan.

The scope of the project will include:

 Investigating the cause, severity and extents of portland cement concrete (PCC) deterioration

within the existing bridge structural elements. Investigations shall include field sampling and

laboratory testing of PCC materials.

 Repair or replace structural elements as necessary.

 Repair concrete deck and install polymer overlay.

 Replace bridge expansion joints.

 Replace existing bridge rail, pedestrian rail and parapets.

 Reconstructing the roadway approaches, including paving and approach guardrail.

 Removal of vegetation and other obstructions within the project vicinity.

The existing roadway alignments and approximate right of way boundaries can be viewed on the Deschutes

County Dial website at https://dial.deschutes.org/Real/InteractiveMap.

Key elements of the project will include:

 Laboratory testing to investigate the underlying cause of deterioration in the existing concrete

materials.

 Coordination with BNSF to ensure compliance with BNSF procedures for construction work in the

railroad right-of-way.

 Coordination with utility owners.

 Maintaining free-flowing two-way traffic on S Century Dr for most of the duration of the project.

The Department seeks the services of a qualified engineering consultant team (“Consultant”) to provide

preliminary engineering services, including design, surveying, and coordination. Specifically, the

Consultant will provide the following listed services:

1. Material Testing Services - The Consultant shall provide all labor, equipment and materials to

complete a field and laboratory investigation of the existing PCC materials exhibiting deterioration,

in order to identify the primary mechanism driving the accelerated deterioration. The Consultant

shall:

deterioration in the PCC matrix. Laboratory testing shall include, at a minimum,

petrographic examination of the hardened PCC and aggregates.

c. Prepare a report summarizing the findings of the laboratory investigation, including

recommended methods for remediation of afflicted PCC elements.

2. Surveying Services - The Consultant shall provide all labor, equipment and materials to prepare

mapping and complete the design of all elements of the project. The Consultant shall:

d. Perform research of existing records

material testing report. Present the rehabilitation alternatives to the County for review.

b. Utilizing AASHTO, ODOT, MUTCD, and other industry standards and best practices,

produce project plans for the selected rehabilitation strategy, including 30%, 90% and
