BR-0101: U.S. 64 Bridge Replacement - Rutherford County
BR-0101: U.S. 64 Bridge Replacement - Rutherford County
The N.C. Department of Transportation plans to replace Bridge No. 104 on U.S. 64 over Cove Creek east of Lake Lure. The project includes replacing the existing structure with a new bridge to the south that includes two 12-foot travel lanes and 8-foot shoulders.
The purpose of this project is to provide a safer crossing on U.S. 64 over Cove Creek since the bridge, while being maintained for safety, has become structurally deficient and is approaching the end of its functional life. A bridge is considered "structurally deficient" if it is in relatively poor condition or has insufficient load carrying capacity. The insufficient load capacity could be due to the original design or to deterioration.

RESOURCES FOR PROPERTY OWNERS
Although the N.C. Department of Transportation works to minimize the number of homes and businesses displaced by a road project, it is inevitable, in many cases, that a certain amount of private property is needed.
