1. General Information
Introduction
The Portage County Highway Department (County) is interested in obtaining the services of an engineering
consultant firm for the design of the bridge structure over Bear Creek on CTH II, in the Town of Linwood. The
design and construction of the project have been selected as part of the Wisconsin Department of
Transportation’s 2024-2029 Local Bridge Program. The successful consultant will need to complete all tasks
associated with delivering the project including administration, survey, agency and utility coordination,
municipal coordination, public involvement, environmental document, r/w plat(if needed), design reports,
preliminary and final plans, and final PS&E, all in conformance with WisDOT guidelines and applicable
Wisconsin State Statutes. The projects are currently scheduled for State Fiscal Year 2025 design with an
August 1, 2026 PS&E date, and a November 10, 2026 Let Date. The schedule for other deliverables will be
determined when the three-party design engineering services contract is negotiated and awarded.
The County of Portage as represented by the Purchasing Department intends to use the results of this
Request for Proposal (RFP) to award a contract for the above listed project. The proposal will follow Quality
Based Selection.
Contract Execution: The contract resulting from this RFP will be administered by the Wisconsin Department
of Transportation(DOT) Local Program Manager Jason Schaeffer from the DOT’s Wisconsin Rapids Office.
There is no cost to the proposer associated with this process.

Project Description
The successful consultant will need to complete all tasks associated with delivering the project

final PS&E, all in conformance with WisDOT guidelines and applicable Wisconsin State Statutes.

1.3.2.
Current Status
The culvert pipes currently have an NBI rating of 3, sufficiency rating of 48.4. The current structure
is structurally deficient and functionally obsolete. The existing twin steel culverts are in poor and
severe condition. The ends of the culverts include full section loss and local failures could occur
within the roadway over the structure. The existing twin culverts also block debris which leads to
sedimentation and vegetation build-up on the upstream ends of both culverts. The existing structure
has substandard guardrail which is a safety issue for this minor collector. The proposed approach
lengths for the main structure are proposed at 150' for each side to improve safety by allowing
adequate widening and standard guardrail installation. In addition, since the existing culverts are
proposed to be replaced with a slab span bridge, slight increases to the profile may be necessary to
provide for adequate freeboard to the bridge deck. The existing structure is proposed to be
replaced by a single slab span structure estimated at a 32-length based on the bank widths provided
by USGS StreamStats report. The proposed width is 30' to accommodate heavy agricultural use and
wide implements of husbandry in the surrounding area.
1.3.3.
Additional Review
In addition, at approximately 325' south of this structure, there are twin steel culverts which are
under 20' in span and do not qualify as a bridge. These culverts are experiencing the same
deterioration and failure concerns as P49-055 as they were likely installed at the same timeframe.
The County proposes to include the design and replacement of these culverts as part of this project
but that portion would be 100% locally funded. Any additional approach work for these culverts
will be 100% locally funded as well. Real estate is not anticipated but if required by design, it will be
100% locally funded.
1.3.4.
Proposed Improvement
Bear Creek Structure P49-0055 is anticipated to be replaced with a single span bridge structure that
is estimated to be 30’ clear bridge width and 30’ long. The hydrologic and hydraulic design will
ultimately determine the structure size and adjacent culvert sizing. The area should be reviewed to
determine if the southern culverts need to be replaced in-kind or if they may be eliminated due to
the new bridge structure.
