Cecchetti Temporary Bridge Project (310014/ED25-0147)

San Luis Obispo County is forecasting the installation of a temporary single-lane bridge over Arroyo Grande Creek to restore vehicular access on Cecchetti Road after a washout. The bridge will be modular, confined within the existing road footprint, and constructed with components such as decking, abutments, and railings designed for short-term use. It is intended to remain in place until the permanent bridge design is finalized, projected for 2027, at which time the temporary structure will be fully removed. Due to the bridge’s inability to handle high creek flows, it must be seasonally dismantled each winter and reinstalled in spring, requiring multiple mobilizations. Each installation or removal must strictly avoid disturbing the streambed, creek banks, and surrounding riparian habitat. The project is identified under reference number 310014/ED25-0147, with primary contact information provided through the county’s Environmental Programs Division Manager, Kate Shea.
