The City has requested a brief report discussing the scope of work and costs that would be <br />associated with reusing the bridges within the City. <br />IY�I17i:(l7Z�111►1�7 <br />The two bridges came from the former City -owned golf course near the intersection of 1-35W and U.S, <br />Highway 10. The bridges were no longer needed at that location after the site was redeveloped into an <br />office complex by Medtronic. Bonestroo performed a cursory inspection of the bridges on November 8, <br />2007, and observed the following: <br />• The two bridges appear to be identical <br />• The bridges are prefabricated truss structures approximately 40 feet long and 10 feet wide <br />• The bridges are made of self -weathering steel ("rusty" look, no painting needed), with timber <br />decking <br />• The bridges were designed for a 10,000 pound vehicle, and presumably pedestrian loads <br />• The bridges appear to be in good condition, except for the timber decking <br />• The bridges appear to have been manufactured by Contech (formerly Continental Bridge) in <br />Alexandria, MN. Specific design information can probably be obtained from Contech. <br />if <br />Bonestroo <br />
