Central Avenue – Accelerated Bridge Construction
The central avenue replacement bridge will replace an existing 5 span bridge structure. The existing bridge longest span is a through truss design that spans 61.56m over 4 railroad tracks. Harbourside was responsible for the structural design of the 4 – self stabilizing temporary steel bents which were supported on spread reinforced concrete footings founded on bedrock.
Bedford By-pass Girder Repair
In 2012, the Bedford By-Pass Bridge Structure sustained structural damage from a vehicular impact to the north girder Cherubini Metal Works contracted Harbourside to provide structural engineering services for the rehabilitation of the portion of the Bedford By-Pass Bridge superstructure that sustained impact damage.
Little Bras d’Or Cofferdam, Trestle and Bridge Replacement
Local tourism in the Little Bras D’Or area is dependent on the access provided by the Little Bras D’Or bridge. It acts as the only non-load related link to the Newfoundland ferry in North Sydney. As the bridge was in a deteriorated state, it was slated for replacement in 2010.
