Replacing the bridge posed significant challenges and required the need to design and build a resilient bridge for future floods. Two contractors submitted multiple options, including installing a temporary structure in summer 2024, followed by a permanent solution in 2025, but initial estimates suggested a costly ($5 million) and time-consuming process.

The county ultimately chose the CMC Bridge solution because InQuik Bridges are pre-engineered and prefabricated, ensuring efficient and easy installation for the contractor. More importantly, this solution provided a cast-in-place integral structure that is both permanent and has proven disaster resilience. The project was delivered in less than 6 months because of the innovative InQuik construction process, shaving a year off the original timeline, and was completed for $2 million, saving the county $3 million. The CM/GC delivery process was a collaborative effort between the county, consulting engineers, local contractors, C-DOT and CMC.
