MAII~lYENANCE

At the end of the 1966 fiscal year, the Division of Highways employed about 4,504 maintenance personnel working out of 317 maintenance sta- tions to care for 14,215 miles of state highways. Total expenditure for maintenance during the year exceeded $56,390,Q00. The above figures include personnel and costs to maintain and improve the landscaping on the state highway system. This included the maintenance of an increasing number of roadside rest areas throughout the state, which by the end of the reporting period to- talled close to 30. (See page 14.)

Right: A cutter, similar to a lawn edger in purpose, has been developed by the State Division of Highways to trim vegetation from the curbing alongside highways. The machine can clear from three to five miles of roadside per hour, compared with one mile a day accomplished by a man on foot.

Comptroller John Burrill (right) congratulates Sam Zivkovich (left) and Tom Hawkinson for their maximum $150 award received from their joint merit award suggestion. Their suggestion was that federal highway reimbursement funds be picked up in San Francisco and immediately de- posited in a bank rather than go through normal channels for transmittal to Sacramento which might take anywhere from a day to a week. The extra interest computed daily on the more than $300,000,000 dollars handled yearly will bring into the state an additional $160,000 a year. Upon proof of total savings to the State Highway Fund through this practice, the suggesters may receive the highest single award ever made by the State Merit Award Board. Highest single award to date was $11,808 awarded in 1959 to Andrew Schoellkopf of the Division of Highways.

Above: Two examples of variations in design being used in current construction jobs in the Sacramento area. Since urban design involves the pedestrian's view as well as that of the motorist, new ideas such as these are being incorporated into structures to make them more pleasing in the city landscape. Modern highway design recognizes the need to serve traffic with safety while preserving the amenities of the environment. The designer who today is using all the modern mechanical tools such as computers, photogram- rnetry, and electronic measuring devices, must still be sensitive to the factors which make up the environment. The pictures on these four pages illustrate the variety of situations which may be encountered, as well as some of the methods used in reaching satisfying solutions. It must be kept in mind that environment can mean city streets and slow moving pedestrians, a quiet residential area., or the vast open spaces of the mountains and desert. x .'

Here in California the demand for better looking highways has been received ~~ith considerable pleasure. Although our designers have been striving for years to achieve the best in structure appearance, the budget for beautification has never been very large. ?~TOw, with the new aesthetic impetus, money is available to improve the appearance of structures. Manv new ideas have been nn the drawing boards for several years. This year many of these plans went to contract and the public began to see some stimulating new designs. The new look in bridges employs form, texture, and color. All of these have -been used to advantage to create more exciting structures. For example, many bridge girders are being given sloping sides getting away from the structurally efficient but not always pleasing square corners. Besides a more interesting look, this keeps the girder faces in shadow most of the time, and the sloping faces minimize the apparent depth of the girders. In some cases the corners have been completely eliminated so the structure achieves a lighter look. The first structure built on the Ju- nipero Serra Freeway south of San Francisco near San Jose was given a continuously curved profile across the underside of the bridge, and the effect is of extreme thinness and light- Above: This str~~cture combi~,es a liberal use of ri4bble masonry ness.

Beneath, is a huge area wl~,ich may be ~,csed fog• a variety of pz~r~oses. (Fort Sutter Viacleact in Sacramento.) is another innovation. Getting away from the traditional and more economical plain round, square or rectangular columns, the new columns may be tapered or shaped, rounded, oval or multisided. With these curves and tapers, the structures take on a rly- namic feeling. Those being built in Sacramento illustrate this in a striking manner. Textures are being widely used to break up plain faces and add interest. A variety of textures are being used on bridge piers to add interest to otherwise plain faces. Retaining walls, notorious for their long plain glaring faces, are being given intermittent panels of texture to interrupt the monotony. These run the gamut from light textures cast into the concrete, as vas done in some of,:the walls in Oakland, to interspersed panels of rubble masonry or rock-lined planting niches, as in Nevada City. Colored panels help to interrupt monotony. A color may in itself add life to an otherwise drab structure. California has for some time been painting the steel bridges a dark green. In an effort to make the colors more compatible with their surroundings, new colors in the golden tan range are being tried, for matching California's golden hills. They blend remarkably in areas ~~here for nine months of the year dry grass dominates the landscape. The first of these r~ew colors was put nn a bridge in the San Bernardino area and more are planned throughout the state. Appearance and aesthetics are emo- tional things, and people's tastes vary, Hence, every effort is made to strike a middle ground. Bridges will be in service for many years, and it is important that the designs not follow any faddish trend which may make them look out of place in some future design age. Every ne~v design tried opens a new vista and an opportunity for greater improvement. Some of the ideas have not gone far enough. Some were possibly applied too enthusiastically.

As the steel girders creep across the tall bothic piers to meet high in the center span, the dream of the designer is rapidly taking shape.

To meet this criticism, 1 new steel rail was designed with only two horizontal mem- ,~, . bers and nn curbing. The visibility was excellent. Oddly enough, it turned t nut to be too good. After some of this railing vas installed high on a mountainside near San Bernardino, it was found the visibility `vas so good that travelers looked through into thin air beyond, became uneasy and invariably moved over away from the rail. It was obvious that they wanted ~~isibility out but they did not want to see through down near the deck where they got a sensation of great height. So, another A welded steel girder structure which won a steel contest award in design has been worked out combin- 1966 for its clean, simple lines. (Willow Creek Bridge in Humboldt ing the best features of both railings. County.) A low concrete parapet is surmounted by a single rectangular tube only two inches thick. The view down is blocked by the parapet, which also is very effective as a collision barrier. The view nut is almost unobstructed by the t~vo-inch tube. This railing will see wide application and will provide the maximum visibility with complete safety. Vertical clearance under structures has also received considerable study this year—both the permanent clearance and the clearance during construction. Falsework clearance is especially critical. With the longer spans being built, falsework is essential. Yet, in many locations, traffic is so heavy that an impairment of the available clearance even during the construction period presents problems. Although the legal height limit is 13' 6", higher Above: The clean lines of the new concrete stricture on tits high, slimti, piers the curved timber which permit loads or loads of illegal height rounded contrasts with old sharply trestle carried the traf~iie for past years (Caspar Creek Bridge on the Mendo- often hit the falsework, occasionally cino Coast.)

Although phis may in some cases necessitate raising the approach grades somewhat, the safety during construction is considered to be of paramount importance. Horizontal clearance is also being studied with an eye to achieving the safest possible arrangement commensurate with the cost and construction requirements. Bridge designing and construction has sho~~n a steady increase. Currently the bridge budget runs about $120,- 000,000 for more than 500 bridges each year. A continuing budget of this sort requires turning nut plans for two bridges and completing the construction of two bridges each working day.

'34 1967-68 State Highway Budget by Region, Counties

NOTE 1 —The term "freeway" means a multilane divided highway with full access control, no crossings at grade, no stop lights and no left-turr. movements. An "expressway" may have the same access control as the freeway but may permit left turns and crossings at grade at some intersections which may or may not be signalized. "Two-lane expressways" are two-lane highways with access control, and are usually planned for future expansion to four lanes. NOTE 2—Projects which overlap county lines are listed in both counties. NOTE 3—Construction contracts financed in this new budget may be awarded beginning January 1967; right-of-way funds may not be spent until July 1, 1967, the start of the fiscal year. NOTE 4—Questions concerning individual items can best be answered by your Division of Highways district office.
