ESSEX â On Monday, the Vermont Agency of Transportation will work to replace a bridge located along VT Route 117 in the Town of Essex.
Bridge 2, which crosses the Alder Brook, is a metal pipe arch built in 1993, according to VTrans. The existing structure is 17-feet wide and is significantly deteriorated and rusted. The bridge is also experiencing major piping and erosion issues.Â
VTrans evaluated alternatives for repair or replacement of the bridge in an engineering study completed in June 2016. Several alternatives were considered including no action, culvert rehabilitation and full bridge replacement. The study concluded that a new bridge structure with phased construction was the best course of action.Â
