Bedford By-Pass Girder Repair
The Bedford By-Pass Bridge Structure near Halifax, Nova Scotia, sustained structural damage in 2012 from a vehicular impact. In 2016, NSTIR awarded the contract for rehabilitation to Cherubini Metal Works, who contacted Harbourside to provide structural engineering services for the rehabilitation of the damaged portion of the bridge. Harbourside Engineering completed a condition assessment, developed a girder repair procedure that minimized impact to traffic on Highway 102 and the Bedford By-Pass, and provided detailed phasing drawings outlining the girder repair procedure to the contractor.
Bedford West Sub Area 10 Traffic Study
As part of the development application for Bedford West Sub Area 10 to quantify the transportation impacts of a proposed roundabout development, Harbourside Transportation Consultants completed a traffic impact study in 2015, evaluating traffic operations at Highway 102 and the Kearney Lake Road Interchange. The study identified existing operational problems at the Kearney Lake Road interchange and recommended that two signalized intersections be converted to roundabouts to accommodate long-term growth.
