MacKenzie River Bridge Replacement
Harbourside Transportation Consultants completed the design of the vertical and horizontal alignments, from initial concept layouts through to detailed design and tender, for the new approaches for the MacKenzie Bridge Replacement in 2016. The objective of the alignment design was to be able to construct the new bridge while maintaining traffic on the existing structure and improving the geometry on the roadway approaches. The updated bridge now meets modern guidelines, making it much safer than its predecessor.
Warren Brook Bridge Replacement
A call for proposals was issued in 2015 for the design of a replacement for the Warren Brook Bridge, spanning over the Warren Brook along the Cabot Trail near Ingonish Beach, Nova Scotia. After a preliminary design stage that evaluated several structure types and highway alignment options, Harbourside determined the optimal solution. The project objective was to remove and replace the existing bridge in an efficient, cost-effective and environmentally friendly manner, and to realign the approaches on each side of the bridge to meet current standards.
