FY26-DDOT-IPMA-27th Street Bridge over Broad Branch Rehabilitation

The project involves the design and construction of long-term remediation measures for the 27th Street NW bridge over Broad Branch, which was originally reconstructed in 2015 using a GRS-ABS bridge system—the first of its kind in the district. Routine inspections by DDOT’s Asset Management division have identified differential settlement in the eastern abutment, resulting in visible cracking in the approach pavement. These structural issues necessitate targeted interventions to restore stability, prevent further deterioration, and ensure the long-term safety and functionality of the bridge. The remediation efforts will address the underlying geotechnical causes of the settlement and restore the integrity of the approach alignment. This initiative is formally designated under FY26-DDOT-IPMA-27th Street Bridge over Broad Branch Rehabilitation and was posted as a forecast on July 23, 2026, under the Transportation (DDOT) agency within the District of Columbia. While specific solicitation details, NAICS code, and set-aside information are not yet available, the project is positioned as a critical infrastructure repair effort aimed at preserving a unique bridge structure and mitigating risks to public safety and mobility. The work will focus on durable solutions that align with the original innovative design while addressing the unexpected settling behavior observed in the eastern abutment.
