Bridge Work

This week we removed the old bridge from the 11th hole. The failing abutments soon followed and we are staging to excavate for new abutments. As you can see in the second picture, water dams are being installed to de-water the excavation sites.
The old bridges were 40 feet long and 10 feet wide with no railings. The new bridges are 44 feet long to prevent any constriction to the flow of the creek. The bridges are 15 feet wide to accommodate all equipment crossing including the snowcat. Due to code and safety concerns there must be a 42 inch high railing on each side of the bridges. The bridge railings will not interfere with golf shots with their location.
