Valley Forge Culvert Replacement
Valley Forge Culvert Replacement
Hillsborough, NC
Summit was tasked with designing repairs for the FEMA Regulated Cates Creek crossing on Valley Forge Road. The existing crossing consists of (3) 96-inch corrugated metal pipes that had rusted out on the bottom. The initial proposed repair consisted of slip-lining the existing corrugated metal pipes. The repair plan was modeled in HEC-RAS and received approval from NCFMP as a No-Rise. However, after conducting an opinion of probable cost, the Town of Hillsborough wanted to explore more cost-effective repair options. Summit identified several alternatives that could also result in a No-Rise. Cost estimates were provided for each alternative.
After designing repairs for the FEMA-regulated Cates Creek crossing on Valley Forge Road, Summit followed up with Construction Administration and Inspection services to ensure this infrastructure was installed in accordance with Town specifications and construction drawings.
