This project will replace the existing bridge over Warrior Creek located on SR 256/Scooterville Highway located approximately 2 miles north of Norman Park. The existing 315 ft by 28 ft concrete/steel bridge will be replaced with a 400 ft by 38 ft concrete bridge on the existing alignment. An on site detour will be constructed on the east side of the roadway to maintain traffic flow during construction. Existing right-ofway varies from 160-185 ft and the proposed maximum right-of-way would be 265 ft. The total length of the project is 1700 ft. An archeological survey (Level II) was conducted in accordance with "GDOT/FHWA Cultural Resource Survey Guidelines" developed by the GDOT Staff Archeologists in consultation with DNR Historic Preservation Division Staff and concurred in by the Federal Highway Administration and State Historic Preservation Officer. These guidelines provide general survey boundaries and methodological approaches to archeological surveys based on the type/scope of work of proposed highway projects and are followed during the initial identification of archaeological resources.
