New bridge 4 new tractor

[Jacksonvly]

Last springs heavy rains washed out my old bridge.
This run off is 4-5 feet deep and only 8 feet across. Dry except for rains , then it's a raging torrent.
Used beams made of 4 sandwiched 2×10.
They sit on top of 36 inch utility pole sections buried. Three beams total.
Rough cut hemlock deck
Field stone accent on earth ramps.

Very nice looking bridge. Did you cover the sides before the bridge to prevent washouts?

Looks great.

My insurance company would probably make me put a rail :laughing:

Looks nice. I need more details and pictures so I can duplicate it

I have no idea what you take across your bridge,
when we put in culverts or bridges we also have a creek crossing that we use for heavy and or wide loads,
gentle slopes down in and out with large rock lining the bottom 8-12 inch rocks driven in smooth.

also, very nice looking bridge

A rail? Are you kidding? Pedestrian walkways, bike lanes and load limit signs. And a Government TROLL to collect taxes. (Needs Air conditioned hut and lunch room). Don't forget cameras.

Very nice bridge!

Very nice bridge Jackson! Want to come and build me a 30ft clear span footbridge? Apparently a non insured driver decided my existing one was ugly and took it out..

Probably add a railing , still debating styles.

Looks great. I really like the rock that you used!!!

Great job. Is that a Boykin on the bridge?
