Calaveras County, California Bridges: State Route 4 Bridge across Angel Creek

May 2013 (38.06861 Degrees, -120.53833 Degrees) Angel Creek Bridge
Across the street from the old arch bridge is a single span reinforced concrete T girder bridge that carries State Route 4 across Angel Creek. The Angel Creek Bridge (30 0008) was built in 1946, had some work done in 1960, and is currently rated in fair condition.
The bridge is 46 ft long, 37.4 ft wide (edge of deck to edge of deck), and is on a 32 degree skew. It has a sufficiency rating of 76 and carries about 6500 vehicles a day. The girders are supported by end-diaphragm abutments. The creek flows around the abutments without any kind of scour protection.
