Victoria Bridge Erection
The original Victoria bridge was a two-span structure, built in in 1926. It served as the main arterial connection, connecting Old South and downtown London via Ridout street over the Thames River. After nearly a century of use, the bridge was in need of replacement. The new structure had to include features that would benefit active transportation and consider the effects of climate change and flooding.
Chéticamp River Bridge Replacement
The former Cheticamp River Bridge consisted of a four simple span riveted steel girder, reinforced concrete deck superstructure, founded on three in-river concrete piers and concrete abutments and retaining walls located at each end of the bridge. The structure underwent several stages of rehabilitation, but in 2006 after a detailed inspection it was recommended that the 73-meter-long structure be completely replaced.
