2010 Inspection 

Status:	Open, no restriction [A]
Average daily traffic:	32,400 [as of 2009]
Truck traffic:	3% of total traffic
Channel protection:	Bank is beginning to slump. River control devices and embankment protection have widespread minor damage. There is minor stream bed movement evident. Debris is restricting the channel slightly. [6]
Culvert condition:	Deterioration or initial disintegration, minor chloride contamination, cracking with some leaching, or spalls on concrete or masonry walls and slabs. Local minor scouring at curtain walls, wingwalls or pipes. Metal culverts have a smooth curvature, non-symmetrical shape, significant corrosion or moderate pitting. [6]
Scour condition:	Bridge foundations determined to be stable for the assessed or calculated scour condition. [8]
Evaluation:	Functionally obsolete [2]
Sufficiency rating:	63.0
Recommended work:	Replacement of bridge or other structure because of substandard load carrying capacity or substantial bridge roadway geometry. [31]
Estimated cost of work:	$223,000

2000 Inspection
