Timber Local Bridge Load Rating and Evaluation

Brief Description: MnDOT is requesting responses for work supporting the Bridge Office and State Aid for Local Transportation. Local bridges have been identified that may be susceptible to a range of vehicle types, including specialized hauling vehicles (SHV), emergency vehicles (EV), and Implements of Husbandry (IoH). Bridges will be evaluated and, if necessary, posted at or below legal load limits to ensure safe operation. The final list of bridges for evaluation under this contract will include structures requiring load rating for standard legal loads (including EVs), overweight permit vehicles, and IoH vehicles. Accurate evaluation is essential to ensure public safety, protect infrastructure, and maintain compliance with applicable State and Federal requirements. The goal of this project is to provide refined rating analysis and load posting recommendations for bridges on the local transportation system.
