Proposal
The existing fill material at the west elevation is to be extended under the two span arch bridge to provide long term structural support to the bridge deck above. New embankments to the east and west of the bridge will be formed using stone. All new embankments will be topsoiled and grass seeded. Drainage pipes will be laid at ground level to allow water to drain from either side of the structure if required.
