(a) Facilities may be installed as attachments to bridges or roadway <br /> structures only where the utility has demonstrated that all other means of <br /> accommodating the facility are not practicable. Other means shall include, <br /> but are not limited to, underground, underwater, independent poles, cable <br /> supports and tower supports, all of which are completely separated from <br /> the bridge or roadway structure. Facilities transmitting commodities that <br /> are volatile, flammable, corrosive, or energized, especially those under <br /> significant pressure or potential, present high degrees of risk and such <br /> installations are not permitted. <br /> (b) A utility shall include in its request to accommodate a facility <br /> installation on a bridge or roadway structure supporting data <br /> demonstrating the impracticability of altemate routing. Approval or <br /> disapproval of an application for facility attachment to a bridge or roadway <br /> structure will be based upon the following considerations: <br /> � � (1) The type, volume, pressure or voltage of the commodity to be <br /> transmitted and an evaluation of the resulting risk to persons and . <br /> property in the event of damage to or failure of the facility; , <br /> (2) The type, length, value, and relative importance of the highway <br /> structure in the transportation system; <br /> (3) The alternative routings available to the utility and their <br /> comparative practicability; �'I <br /> 38 <br />
