Bridge Deck Repairs on I-8 Pine Valley Bridge

Caltrans District 11 in San Diego is preparing to undertake bridge deck repairs on the I-8 Eastbound and Westbound Pine Valley Creek Bridge, identified as structure 57-0692 L/R. The project involves complete removal of the deteriorated one-inch polyester concrete overlay across both directions of the bridge, totaling approximately 13,391 square feet, followed by repairs to the approach and departure slabs, replacement of deteriorated joint seals, and application of new traffic striping to restore safe and functional driving conditions. Work is focused on addressing structural degradation caused by the failed surface treatment to extend the service life of the bridge and ensure continued reliability for high-volume traffic. The contract opportunity was posted on June 30, 2025, and is managed by Caltrans’ San Diego office with Petra Samira El Shammas, Environmental Scientist, serving as the primary point of contact for inquiries. All work will occur at the existing bridge location in San Diego County, California, with no set-aside provisions or NAICS code specified. The project aims to enhance safety and durability without altering the structural foundation, focusing exclusively on surface and joint rehabilitation.
