The Bridge Engineering Division is dedicated to ensuring the safety and reliability of San Joaquin County's bridge infrastructure. The Division secures funding from local, state, and federal sources to support essential bridge projects, including seismic retrofit, barrier rail installation, rehabilitation, replacement, painting, concrete deck sealing, and preventative maintenance programs.
Our team of engineers and technicians is committed to providing exceptional customer service. The Division prepares or oversees the development of plans, specifications, and estimates for bridge, minor structure, and bridge-related projects. We also manage, inspect, and inventory the County's fixed bridges, ferries, movable span bridges, and minor structures, ensuring they are safe for public use.
Safety is our top priority. We review transportation permits for bridges, provide structural engineering assistance, maintain the County's Structural Asset Management System, and coordinate work recommendations from state inspection reports with the Road Maintenance Division to ensure timely completion of needed repairs. By focusing on these critical areas, we are dedicated to delivering a safe, reliable, and efficient transportation network for our community.
The Bridge Engineering Division also conducts consultant procurement activities for all Divisions of Public Works. Consultant procurement consists of solicitation of engineering design and construction management consultants through Requests for Qualifications and Proposals; convening a selection committee; conducting proposal evaluation and consultant interviews; and negotiating terms and conditions for a consultant services agreement.
