Issues Flood Bypass Channel Construction would require extensive modifications to: - Truckee River Fountain Walk Plaza - Post Office Plaza Design - 10 North Virginia Plaza/Ice Rink pedestrian & vehicular systems - Remove the Masonic Office Building
Bridge Replacement Bridge Types best choices for flood mitigation through arch cable stayed, off-set pier no center pier
Issues Historic status of existing VA St. Bridge could influence replacement design. Replacement design is unlikely to have piers, which will improve flood capacity. New bridge could affect your ability to view up and down the river, keep bridge transparent to maintain river views.
Replacement bridge design should be coordinated with 10 North Virginia Plaza/Ice Rink cover for visual compatibility
Opportunities Replacement VA St. Bridge could be a new landmark for downtown Reno with unique design. A team including an experienced bridge designer should be used to derive a context based design solution. Look at the family of downtown river bridges during VA St. Bridge design process to ensure overall design compatibility since Sierra and Lake Street bridges are also scheduled for replacement.
