Crane Creek Greenway

District 4

Project scope is to design a recreational greenway from the Columbia canal diversion dam (headgates) extending north along the west side of the Broad River across Smith Branch, then turn toward the edge of Broad River and continue north along the river’s edge crossing over Crane Creek and terminating just north of Crane Creek. Design a bridge across Smith Branch to carry City of Columbia specified vehicles and pedestrian crossing over Crane Creek.

 

Project Status:

  • The project is currently in the construction bidding phase, with bidder inquiries being addressed through formal addendum responses to clarify design requirements, construction sequencing, foundation systems, materials, lay down area access, and schedule expectations. The design team has confirmed that the Smith Branch bridge crossing is to be constructed as designed, while allowing limited contractor-proposed alternatives for select project elements subject to engineering review and approval. Land disturbance approval has been obtained, and coordination continues with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers regarding renewal of the Nationwide Permit, with an agency status update anticipated prior to bid opening. The project remains on schedule for bid opening, with Procurement activities advancing toward contractor selection and project award.
