Abstract:
This project considered stream instability countermeasures used by the Kansas Department of Transportation (KDOT) to protect the highway infrastructure at stream crossings from changes due to the dynamic nature of streams. Site visits were made to 13 locations in Kansas where stream instability countermeasures were constructed. The visits were documented with photographs taken on site. Plans and pre-project photographs were reviewed and included in the report. The function and design of the scour countermeasures used by KDOT at these sites are presented along with photographs of the KDOT projects. The countermeasures discussed are bendway weirs, jetties (or spurs), drop structures, hard points, gabion baskets and bank protection.
