EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

This study addresses the feasibility of constructing an elevated, shared-use bicycle path for the Cleveland

Metroparks adjacent to Hauser Way and the Norfolk Southern Railroad (NSRR) tracks. Such a path requires an

elevated structure with a free span of approximately 37’ to cross an existing Northeast Ohio Regional Sewer

District (NEORSD) diversion structure located in the proposed path of travel. Initial coordination with the NEORSD

and preliminary design calculations indicate that supporting the free-span elevated structure directly on the

diversion structure would be acceptable and preferred.

Two approach alternates have been proposed to reach the existing top of diversion structure elevation from the

lower surrounding grades. Approach Alternate 1 raises the existing grades and adds and modifies existing retaining

walls. The estimated cost of the project with Approach Alternate 1 is $800,000 to $1,000,000 depending on the

structure type utilized. Approach Alternate 2 employs an elevated walkway on single or double piers. The

estimated cost of the project with Approach Alternate 2 is $870,000 to $1,320,000 depending on the structure

type utilized. Utility work will be necessary for both alternates, with significant cost anticipated for the potential

relocation of existing underground lines to avoid structure foundations proposed in Approach Alternate 2.

Both approach alternates propose foundations, areas of cut, and a section of new retaining wall which extend into

the railroad’s “zone of influence”. Although the types of impacts to the NSRR are similar for both alternates,

Approach Alternate 2 requires a significantly greater number of foundations, a potential concern to the railroad.

Additionally, the Metroparks currently holds right-of-way only on the west side of the diversion structure and

would need to acquire additional right-of-way from NSRR on the east side in order to construct the project.

Taking into account the relative costs for each alternate, advantages and disadvantages, Approach Alternate 1 and

Structure Alternate 2 were found to be the preferred conditions.

EXISTING SITE CONDITIONS

The proposed site presents several challenges including steep existing grades, numerous existing utilities, and

narrow right-of-way. The figures below show the steep slope approaching the diversion structure (Figure 2) and

the existing NEORSD infrastructure which will be in the path of travel (Figure 3).

FIGURE 2: PATH APPROACH

FIGURE 3: NEORSD DIVERSION STRUCTURE

Existing Grades: Due to an existing retaining wall, existing grades in the area immediately surrounding the NEORSD

diversion structure are elevated above the adjacent roadway approximately five (5) feet. The maintained grassy

area extends from the back of the retaining wall approximately 20 feet to the toe of the neighboring railroad

embankment. To the west of the structure, the ground line remains relatively level to the end of the retaining wall.

At the end of the wall, a 4:1 slope carries grades back down to meet surrounding elevations as shown in Figure 2.

To the east of the structure, the ground line gradually recedes at an approximate slope of 5%.

Utilities: Existing utility information has been aggregated from OUPS responses, site visits, and existing plans and

survey. We have determined that gas, water, electric, sewer, lighting, and telecom facilities exist within the project

area. The table below summarizes the known utilities within the project area.

Job 8 Buried fiber (south of railroad tracks)

The majority of the buried utility lines run parallel to the roadway, squarely within the project area. In addition to

buried and aerial lines, numerous surfaces features including valves, vents, hydrants, and manholes are also

present.

Right-of-way: The Metroparks’ right-of-way is approximately 30’ wide on the south of the Hauser Way, extending

up to the west side of the diversion structure. The diversion structure itself sits in an easement provided by the

Page 6: Cleveland Metroparks Hauser Way Bike Path Feasibility Study

railroad to the NEORSD. East of the diversion structure, the railroad right-of-way extends up to the existing

roadway. Right-of-way lines are shown on the proposed plan alternates included in Appendix A.

PROPOSED WORK

As per the Metropark’s scope of work, the proposed trail will be 10’ wide with a maximum grade of 5%. The

maximum cross-slope will be 2%. Bicycle railings will be provided on the elevated portion of the trail as well as

along at-grade locations where the path is separated from the roadway laterally by less than 5’ or where adjacent

slopes are steeper than 1:1. These design values meet the recommendations of the AASHTO Guide for the

Development of Bicycle Facilities as well as the requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act.

A preliminary alignment and profile were established for this study. The alignment holds the proposed path within

the existing grassy shoulder as much as possible to minimize impacts to the railroad embankment while keeping

the front of the diversion structure accessible from the top as requested by NEORSD.

APPROACH PATH CONSTRUCTION

The top of the diversion structure is approximately four (4) feet above the existing retaining wall and nearly ten

(10) feet above the normal ground line on the east and west approaches. In order to meet a maximum 5% grade

and achieve the necessary elevation at the diversion structure, long approach paths on either side of the diversion

structure will be required. Two alternates have been developed to address this need, both resulting in a total trail

length of 765’. In Approach Alternate 1, existing grades would be raised to allow the majority of the trail

approaching and leaving the diversion structure to be at-grade. To retain the necessary fill, existing retaining walls

along the roadway would be extended to the east and west and the height of the existing wall west of the

diversion structure would be increased. This approach would minimize the length of elevated structure and the

number of foundations needed, however it would likely result in modification or replacement of approximately

107’ of existing retaining wall. Alternate 1 would require a number of utility facilities to be relocated or adjusted to

the proposed grades.

In Approach Alternate 2, an elevated boardwalk structure would be utilized for the approach path with minimal at-

grade path at either end. The approach boardwalk would be of the same construction as the elevated structure

crossing the diversion structure. This alternate would eliminate the need for additional retaining walls along the

roadway and minimize cut and fill requirements. However, significant utility work will likely be required to relocate

lines and facilities interfering with proposed boardwalk foundations and the additional number of foundations may

be of concern to the railroad.

At our preliminary site visit we observed the existing retaining walls to be in good condition, however, existing

plans for the walls were not included as part of the diversion structure documentation. For the purposes of this

study, we have assumed that the existing retaining wall footings extend behind the wall a distance equal to the

wall’s height. Based on the amount of fill necessary to construct the on-grade portion of Approach Alternate 1,

modification or replacement of the existing retaining walls is likely. Further investigation into the soundness of the

existing retaining walls and any necessary modifications or replacements will be reviewed as part of the detailed

design process.

Plan, profile and typical sections of Approach Alternates 1 and 2 are included in Appendix A. Probable cost

estimates for both alternates are included in Appendix B.

ELEVATED STRUCTURE

The NEORSD diversion structure is an irregularly shaped reinforced concrete structure constructed in 1979.

Existing plan drawings of the diversion structure were included as part of the NEORSD’s Westerly Interceptor Box

Culvert Repair/Replacement plans dated October 2007. The walls are 1’-0” thick and the top consists of removable

grating supported on steel framing. The structure is supported on a 1’-2” thick reinforced concrete slab. NEORSD

staff access the structure through the grating at the top. At our preliminary site visit, we observed the exterior of

the structure to be in good condition.

An elevated structure will be necessary for the path to mount and cross the NEORSD diversion structure. Due to its

size and irregular shape, a relatively long, level free span of approximately 37’ will be necessary at the top. Two

modular, prefabricated elevated structure type alternates are presented below. Prefabricated systems are

recommended in this application for ease and speed of construction, particularly in the limited access project area.

The structure type selected would also be continued on the approaches for the length determined by the approach

alternate selected.

SUPERSTRUCTURE ALTERNATES

STRUCTURE ALTERNATE 1 – PERMATRAK PRECAST CONCRETE BOARDWALK SYSTEM

The PermaTrak system consists of precast treads and beams. These elements can be supported on a variety of

foundation types including precast footings, drilled concrete caissons, timber piles, and helical piles. A typical

section of the PermaTrak system is shown below. Due to its composition of precast concrete, PermaTrak provides

a durable, no maintenance option with a lifespan of 50 to 75 years. Treads are available in various texture options

to alleviate common concrete slip concerns.

PROJECT IMPACTS

UTILITIES

Due to the limited right-of-way, steep existing grades, and numerous facilities in the project area, impact on the

existing utility facilities will be inevitable. In addition to temporary relocation of overhead lines to allow access for

equipment during construction, permanent anticipated utility work is as follows:

TABLE 2: ANTICIPATED UTILITY WORK

Approach Alternate 1 Approach Alternate 2

- Relocate (1) telephone/power pole

- Relocate (2) fire hydrants

- Raise (3) water valves to grade

- Raise (1) gas valve to grade

- Relocate (4) gas vents

- Relocate (1) telephone/power pole

- Relocate (2) fire hydrants

- Raise (1) water valves to grade

- Relocate 350 LF each of water, gas, and

sanitary lines

The above anticipated utility work is based on the preliminary utility information available at the time of this study.

A subsurface utility investigation will be necessary during detailed design to better locate the numerous facilities

existing in the project area.

RAILROAD COORDINATION / RIGHT-OF-WAY

One major challenge presented by this project is its proximity to the existing Norfolk Southern Railroad (NSRR). At

the time of this study’s completion, preliminary plans showing path alignment, proposed work, and typical sections

had been submitted to the railroad for initial review. Successful completion of this project will require continued

coordination with the railroad. At this time, we anticipate that additional right-of-way will be necessary and that

the railroad will require right-of-way fencing to be constructed between the path and the railroad lines.

Additionally, the steepness of the existing cross-slopes combined with the path width necessitates some areas of

cut and a small retaining wall on the south side of the path. This work, as well as the proposed approach structure

foundations, falls within NSRR’s “zone of influence” as shown on the typical sections. Therefore, additional

approvals may be necessary and continued coordination will be required to ensure that all necessary design

requirements are met. Alternatively, to minimize impacts to the railroad, the grade of the path could be flattened

to increase the elevation in the potential “cut” areas and remove the need for a retaining wall. However, such a

modification would significantly increase the path length necessary to reach existing grades. Retaining wall, fill, and

structure foundation needs and costs would also increase correspondingly.

CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATION

The construction of an elevated, shared-use bicycle path to cross the NEORSD diversion structure presents several

challenges. These include steep existing grades, limited right-of-way, railroad coordination, and utility work. This

study has presented several options to address these challenges.

The main objective of the Metroparks is to provide a continuous trail for the public that is not only safe and

enjoyable, but economical to design and construct. All alternates, as discussed above, will meet this goal.

An opinion of probable cost for the alternates discussed was prepared and is included as Appendix B. As soils

information and foundation recommendations were not available at the time of this study, cast-in-place concrete

drilled shafts were assumed. Additionally, live loading conditions for the elevated path structure were assumed to

be pedestrian only. While the AASHTO LRFD Guide Specifications for the Design of Pedestrian Bridges require

Page 11: Cleveland Metroparks Hauser Way Bike Path Feasibility Study

9

pedestrian bridges with clear widths of 10 feet to be designed for a maintenance vehicle load (H-5), this

requirement can be waived at the Owner’s specification of if vehicular access is prevented by a permanent physical

barrier such as a bollard. In this location, vehicular traffic is not anticipated as the path runs immediately adjacent

to a public roadway and does not provide a route to locations otherwise inaccessible by the roadway. Design of the

elevated structure for vehicular loading would significantly increase structure costs.

Taking into account the relative costs for each alternate, advantages and disadvantages, Approach Alternate 1 and

Structure Alternate 2 were found to be the preferred conditions.
