Bridge Management Manual
Bridge Management Manual
The Bridge Management Manual (BMM) has been developed to provide the Bridge Management staff and consultants with UDOT policies, procedures, and practices. In general, Bridge Management focuses on the responsible management of the in service bridge inventory. In addition, the BMM addresses the Structures Division’s emergency response plan and coordination with local governments. All criteria presented in the BMM are expected to be met to help fulfill UDOT’s mission of providing a safe and efficient transportation system.
