INFORMATIONAL MEMORANDUM
TO: Transportation and Infrastructure Services Committee
FROM: Hari Ponnekanti, Public Works Director/City Engineer
BY: Adam Cox, Transportation Project Manager
CC: Mayor Allan Ekberg
DATE: March 17, 2023
SUBJECT: Annual Bridge Inspections and Repairs Update
Project No. 70010402
Presentation on the State of the City's Bridges
ISSUE
Provide the Transportation and Infrastructure Services Committee with information about the status of
the City's bridge program and inventory, showing the overall condition of the City's bridges after
completion of the 2022 inspections.
BACKGROUND
The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and Washington State Department of Transportation
(WSDOT) require regularly scheduled inspections of all the City's vehicle -carrying bridge structures.
The City extends this effort to include its pedestrian bridges. This requirement allows for continuity in
reporting, as well as the opportunity to identify and potentially fund bridges in need of replacement and
rehabilitation.
ANALYSIS
The City currently owns 24 bridges (16 traffic bearing and 8 pedestrian). Of those, two are jointly -owned
jurisdictional bridges with shared ownership between the City of Renton (Grady Way) and the City of
Kent (S 196th1200).
The following discussion will focus on why the City inspects its bridges, where the City stands in
comparison to the state and the country, and recommendations for additional steps that can be taken to
address known issues. There were no new key findings or major concerns observed during the 2022
inspections.
With available funds in 2022, TranTech Engineering performed a study to evaluate which structures
require bridge seal replacement. City staff plans to use the remainder of the 2023 bridge maintenance
funds to replace deteriorated bridge seals.
The following structures were inspected in 2022:

2023 Scheduled Inspections
A total of 14 of the 24 bridges are planned to be inspected in 2023. One of the bridges being inspected
in 2023 is the S 119' St pedestrian bridge, which is scheduled to receive an inspection in April. The
structure receives an inspection every 24 months due to some of the deterioration observed in the 2017
special climbing inspection. The structure was constructed in 1960 and is nearing the end of its useful
life. The bridge timber deck and timber beams have multiple areas of timber rot and paint loss. The
structure is scheduled to receive paint and epoxy to the timber deck and timber beams in 2024. The
scheduled repair work is considered preventive maintenance and does not improve the structural
integrity of the bridge.
A rough order magnitude (ROM) to replace the structure is approximately $3.9 million. City staff are
actively searching for grant funding opportunities for repairs or replacement of the S 119th street bridge.
FISCAL IMPACT
The cost for King County to perform the 2022 inspections was $19,500.00, which was under the 2022
project budget of $45,000.00.
RECOMMENDATION
Discussion only.

Executive Summary
The City currently has ownership of 24 bridges (16 traffic bearing and 8 pedestrian). Of those, two are jointly
owned jurisdictional bridges with shared ownership between the City of Renton (Grady Way) and the City of Kent
(S 196th/200). The different types of bridge configuration vary from steel through truss, pre -cast concrete girders,
cast -in-place concrete girders, steel girder, wood girder, and steel tied arch spans.
Currently the City has a total of six (6) bridges that have a sufficiency rating between 80 to 100; seven (7) bridges
that have a sufficiency rating between 60 to 79; two (2) bridges that have a sufficiency rating between 40 to 59;
and one (1) bridge (42nd Ave S Bridge) that have a sufficiency rating of 39 or less. Note, pedestrian bridges do not
receive a sufficiency rating. Please refer to the Quick Bridge Reference sheet for the break down of city owned
bridges and the assigned sufficiency rating.
The sufficiency rating formula provides a method of evaluating highway bridge data by calculating four (4)
separate factors to obtain a numeric value which is indictive of bridge sufficiency to remain in service. The result
of this method is a percentage in which 100 percent would represent an entirely sufficient bridge and zero (0)
percent would represent an entirely insufficient or deficient bridge. The formula considers the structural
adequacy, functional obsolescence, level of service and essentiality for public use.

The City Engineer's Bridge Inspection Report, dated March 2023, is published by the City of Tukwila Public Works
Department, and the information contained herein is the best available at the time of publication. It is to be
used as an information tool for planning and maintenance activities, and reflects the general condition of the
City's bridges. The repairs indicated are summarized for brevity from actual bridge inspection reports.
Background
The FHWA (Federal Highway Administration) issued the NBIS (National Bridge Inspection Standards) in 1971.
These standards established a comprehensive inspection for all federal highway system bridges. Minimum
qualifications were set forth for bridge inspectors. Specific types and frequencies of inspections for bridges were
established, and the reporting of certain standard information about each bridge was required. In 1978, these
requirements were extended to all public bridges carrying vehicular traffic.
A national bridge inspection program has been in place ever since, and state and local agencies have performed
bridge inspection in accordance with these guidelines. Inspections for the City of Tukwila's bridges are
conducted every two years unless conditions warrant additional inspections or frequencies as dictated by the
NBIS.

NOTES:
Sufficiency Rating is out of 100.
SD - Indicates the bridge structure is "Structural Deficient" as defined by the WSDOT (Washington State Department of Transportation) bridge inspection program. The structure is still safe for use by the public and the condition is being
monitored.
FO - Indicates the bridge structure is "Functionally Obsolete" as defined by the WSDOT (Washington State Department of Transportation) bridge inspection program. This designation only indicates the roadway geometrics do not meet
current standards for bridge design.
UBIT - Under Bridge Inspection Truck. This indicates the bridge needs special equipment in order to reach portions of the structure for inspection.
ADT - Average Daily Traffic
NA - Sufficiency ratings are not given on pedestrian facilities since they are not a part of the NBI system, a Suff. Rating of NA is given in that location.
All pedestrian bridges do not have a calculated sufficiency rating - they are not traffic loaded bridges and the rating numbers are not calculated per Federal Requirements.
*Traffic counts were not recorded in 2020 due to inconsistencies in traffic volumes.

RE: Inspection of City of Tukwila Bridges
Dear Mr. Cox:
King County bridge engineers inspect the bridges owned by the City of Tukwila, in accordance
with agreements between the City of Tukwila and King County Department of Local Services.
The bridge inspections were conducted as follows:
Interim Inspection
February 26, 2022 No. TUKxNx14, 42nd Ave South Bridge
Routine Inspections
August 16, 2022
August 18, 2022
No. TUKxNx05, SC Blvd. Green River Bridge
No. TUKxNx15, Tukwila International Boulevard
No. TUKxNx18, Green River Ped & Utility Bridge
No. TUKxPx20, 180th Pedestrian Bridge
No. TUKxPx26, Riverton Creek Ped Bridge
No. TUKxPx19, Interurban Trail Bridge
No. TUKxNx21, Fort Dent Park Bridge
No. TUKxPx22, Fort Dent Trail Bridge
No. TUKxPx25, Tukwila Urban Center Ped Bridge
Enclosed are the reports from the bridge inspections and the actions we recommend you take to
maintain the bridges. We submit the data in the report to Washington State Department of
Transportation (WSDOT), in accordance with state and federal laws, to inform them of the
bridge's condition and to assure them the bridge has been inspected on a timely basis. The
information is incorporated into state and federal databases.

The bridge inspection report is divided into three main sections. The first section consists of
three parts: the National Bridge Inspection Standards (NBIS) elements, Load Capacity
Information, and Inspections Performed. The NBIS fields, which are numbered 1657 to 1687 are
used for rating the components of the bridge. In general, the codes rate the components from
eight (best) to one (worst); however, other rating scales apply to some of the fields in this first
section. Explanations of these codes are found in the Washington State Bridge Inspection
Manual (https://www.wsdot.wa.gov/publications/manuals/fulltext/m36-64/Bridgelnspection.pdf).
The second section of the report, Bridge Management System (BMS) Elements, lists quantities
and rates them, breaking down the condition of each component into categories that indicate how
widespread a component is deteriorated. State 1 is best; State 4 is worst.
The third section consists of three parts: Notes, Repairs, and Inspection Resources Required.
The Notes section is comprised of information that provides details of the numbered fields in the
first two sections. Please note that any deficiencies listed in the "Repairs" section are prioritized
between 1 - High priority, and 3 - Low priority. The Resources Required section indicates any
special equipment or tools used to inspect the bridge.
I hope this letter helps you in reviewing these inspection reports. We recommend that the City of
Tukwila bridges continue to be inspected on a 24 -month schedule. Our next scheduled
inspections of the City of Tukwila Bridges will be in spring 2023. Please call Margaret
Germeaux at 206-477-3539 if you need any additional information. We appreciate assisting your
city with bridge engineering and inspection services.
Sincerely,
DocuSigned by:
