            <description><![CDATA[<p style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify" mce_style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify">During its service life of over 100 years, the Half Moon Bay Main Street Bridge over Pilarcitos Creek has developed cracks along critical structural elements, threatening its stability during a significant earthquake or other such event.&nbsp; The most recent Caltrans inspection of the bridge in 2011 resulted in a sufficiency rating of 24 out of 100 and designated the bridge as “structurally deficient.”&nbsp;&nbsp; The City has retained URS Corporation to develop design options for repair or replacement of the bridge.</p>
<p style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify" mce_style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify">The City conducted public meetings on the Main Street Bridge Project on December 19, 2012, February 6, 2013, February 13, 2013 and April 9, 2013 to provide project information and seek public input. &nbsp;Materials from these meetings are featured in the Attachments section at the end of this page.</p>
