Sonoma County, California Bridges: Crocker Road Bridge across the Russian River

September 2014 (38.7150 Degrees, -123.0158 Degrees) Crocker Road Bridge

The Crocker Road Bridge (20C0002) across the Russian River is an odd looking structure. It appears that the existing substructure was replaced with new over-sized two column bents. At some point they're likely to set new right and left bridge on each side of the spans and then remove the existing superstructure.

The bridge includes three Parker pony truss spans and steel girder approach spans. The bridge was seismically retrofitted with concrete pads on the bent caps to catch the spans if the pinned bearings were to break.
