(1) UDOT is responsible for:
(a) Providing a bridge inspection summary for
all structures to the local entity, indicating which recommended actions are
the responsibility of the local entity;
(b) major structure rehabilitation ,
including repair or replacement of parapets, bent caps, beams, columns,
footings, abutments, approach slabs, and slope protection;
(c) deck rehabilitation where necessary to
preserve the structural integrity of the bridge such as where the rebar is
exposed;
(d) structural replacement
of bridge joints;
(e) maintenance
of retaining walls;
(f) maintenance
of drainage under the structure;
(g)
vegetation control, including mowing, along the state route, as demarcated by
access control or Right-of-Way fencing; and (h) fence maintenance under the
structure.
(2) The local jurisdiction is responsible for:
(a)
routine maintenance and preventive maintenance actions indicated in the bridge
inspection summary to be the responsibility of the local entity. This
maintenance normally includes deck overlay/seal treatments, deck pothole
patching, parapet surface repair and sealing, bridge joint cleaning and
sealing, and drain cleaning and maintenance. If UDOT performs a deck

add static load to the structure, such work shall be done in consultation with
UDOT;
(b) submitting records to
UDOT Structures Division of deck and parapet maintenance work performed by the
local jurisdiction according to the recommendations in the bridge inspection
summary. If the local jurisdiction does not perform the preventive maintenance
work, and rehabilitation work becomes necessary, the local jurisdiction and
UDOT will meet to negotiate how the cost of the rehabilitation work to be
performed will be shared;
(c) fence
maintenance on the structure and its approaches;
(d) vegetation control, including mowing,
along the local route, as demarcated by access control or Right-of-Way fencing;
and
(e) maintenance of decorative
landscaping beyond the UDOT Aesthetics Guideline baseline, as described in
R918-6-4(15).
