Replacement of Small Structure No. 18050X0 on MD 5 (Point Lookout Road) Over Drainage Ditch

This project is for replacing the existing 42" dia. (approximate) Corrugated Metal Pipe (CMP) with a 43" x 68" Horizontal Elliptical Reinforced Concrete Pipe (HERCP). Traffic barrier W-beam will be installed along both sides of the roadway at the structure to meet the latest AASHTO requirements. MD 5 is a rural major collector with a design speed and posted speed limit of 50 miles per hour. The roadway at the small structure includes two 12' lanes and two 8' shoulders (approximate) on a 40' clear roadway width. The proposed pipe replacement will be done in stages while maintaining one lane two-way traffic utilizing a 24-hour flagging operation. A pump around is proposed for maintenance of streamflow during the pipe replacement. The roadway at the project site has wide shoulders, approximately 8 ft, which can be used for staging areas.
