Hello all,
Need to build approx 80 ft bridge across a shallow creek crossing that separates house from county road. Limestone bottom--we currently drive across it with pick-ups, and semis/concrete trucks cross no problem. But cars scrape the front end on the decline/incline. If flows 2-3 inches deep year around. During Oklahoma thunderstorms, rarely it turns into a raging 3-6 foot deep river for about an hour, then back to normal. This is more than I'm going to build myself, so where do I start? Get an engineer? NRCS? bridge company or general construction company? Any suggestions welcome-thanks!
