PASS-AROUND REVIEW
PASS-AROUND TITLE: CDOT IGA for Bridge 33/68A Replacement
DEPARTMENT: Public Works DATE:10/13/25
PERSON REQUESTING: Don Dunker,Curtis Hall
•
Brief description of the problem/issue:
Bridge 33/68A,built in 1971,is rated as poor and structurally deficient and needs to be replaced.This
bridge is entirely within CDOT right of way(ROW)however,it is owned and maintained by Weld
County.At the 2025 CIP meeting the BOCC approved the County to give CDOT$9,400,000 to
design,acquire ROW,relocate utilities,obtain a crossing agreement with New Cache La Poudre
irrigation ditch,and construct a new bridge.Once CDOT has constructed the new bridge,they will
Quit Claim the ROW around the bridge to Weld County to aid in future maintenance.This IGA with
CDOT to accomplish this bridge replacement has been reviewed by the Attorney's Office and found
to be acceptable.
What options exist for the Board?
• Approve and sign the CDOT IGA to provide$9,400,000 for the bridge design and replacement.
• Deny the CDOT IGA.
Consequences: Delaying the approval and signing of the IGA will not allow this bridge,that is
rated as poor,to be replaced.
Impacts: If not replaced,this bridge will require expensive temporary repairs to remain open.
Costs(Current Fiscal Year/Ongoing or Subsequent Fiscal Years):$9,400,000 was
included in the 2025 supplemental budget increase for this project.
Recommendation:Approve and sign the CDOT IGA for CDOT to design and replace BR 33/68A.
