Yes, the current bridge is flat bottomed with an arched top.

In years past, it was VERY rare for the water to overflow the culvert but it has become more common in recent years as the stream bed has risen upstream of the culvert due to rocks that have washed down from upstream.

Are you saying that a 6' round pipe will not flow as much as will my current approximately 4' x 5' arched concrete flat-bottomed culvert?

I plan to excavate the creek above the bridge to lower the level to the bottom of the new culvert.
