FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
April 24, 2024

ORD FERRY BRIDGE REPLACEMENT PROJECT

Butte County, Calif. - Construction of the Ord Ferry Bridge Replacement Project is scheduled to begin May 1, 2024. Crews are currently on-site completing final utility relocations and installing construction area signs.

This project was awarded by the Butte County Board of Supervisors on September 26, 2023, to Steelhead Constructors JV of Palo Cedro CA with a low bid amount of $15,158,892. It will replace a relatively narrow existing bridge just west of the town of Dayton with a new 640-foot-long by 43-foot-wide bridge along the section of Ord Ferry Road that crosses Little Chico Creek. Traffic shall be maintained by staging construction of the new bridge thus requiring a single traffic lane through the project site which will be facilitated by using signalized traffic controls for two construction seasons.

Motorists are encouraged to exercise caution when traveling through the area and use alternate routes if possible, as minor delays are to be expected. The project is funded by the Federal Highway Bridge Program (HBP) and local SB1 gas tax funding. The work is scheduled to be completed in the Fall of 2025.
