New Project

The Greater Buffalo-Niagara Regional Transportation Council (GBNRTC), the Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) for Erie and Niagara Counties, is proposing to amend the 2023-2027 Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) by adding one (1) new project.

The project will restore the bridge condition rating to a 5 or greater, for at least 75 years using cost effective techniques to minimize the life cycle cost of maintenance and repair. The project will involve the complete replacement of the existing two-span corrugated steel culvert pipes and concrete wingwalls and removal of the stacked concrete wingwalls. The existing two-span, 24.6' long bridge will be replaced by a 26' long x 8'-6" high three-sided frame.

A location map is included with the attached Initial Project Proposal (IPP).

The total project cost is $1.57M ($1.491M Bridge New York award + $0.079M Local Match (Concord). Fiscal constraint is maintained.

The obligation date will be 10/26.

The GBNRTC is currently in consultation with the Interagency Consultation Group for Air Quality Conformity (ICG) for a Transportation Conformity determination. Exemption Code A19 - Widening narrow pavements or reconstructing bridges (no additional travel lanes).

Public comments will be received for 30 days from 10/24/24 until Close of Business (COB) on 11/24/24.
