• Pair of multi-span Algonquin Modular Panel Detour Bridges used on NBDTI replacement project at Coles Island

• Two rental detour bridge packages keep Halifax neighbourhoods connected, rail traffic running

  As part of CN's multi-year effort to rehabilitate several concrete arch bridges over the rail-cut that runs through peninsular Halifax, we recently designed and supplied two Algonquin Modular Panel Bridge packages to be used as temporary detours at the Marlborough Wood and Belmont on the Arm crossings deep in Halifax's toney South End.

• Seven rental bridges provide construction access on Don Valley East Trail project

  The City of Toronto is working with Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (TRCA) to design and construct a multi-use trail system within the East Don Corridor between the north end of Charles Sauriol Conservation Area, the Lower Don Trail System and the Gatineau Corridor Trail.
  Supported by $23 million in federal funding, the East Don Trail Project is being built in a steep ravine area with limited access for heavy construction vehicles with CL625-ONT loading. Seven construction access stream crossings are required to carry out the project and Algonquin Bridge is supplying a series of rented Algonquin Modular Panel Bridge Systems to create them

• Algonquin Bridge delivers a rental detour bridge to MTQ in three weeks

  When the Ministère des Transports Quebec (MTQ) needed to replace an older bridge over Rivière Sauvage near Saint-Romain, a short-order detour bridge went a long way to keep the project on schedule.

• Parks Canada deploys reusable modular detour bridge in Newfoundland’s Gros Morne National Park

  As part of the five-year Parks Canada Infrastructure Program, a replacement bridge is being constructed at Bakers Brook in Gros Morne National Park on the Western Shore of Newfoundland.

• Algonquin rental pedestrian bridge plays part in BC’s Saanich Interchange Project

  The Province of British Columbia and the Government of Canada are investing $85 million in the development and construction of the McKenzie Interchange Project, a new partial cloverleaf on the Trans-Canada Highway at the Intersection with Admirals Road and McKenzie Avenue in Saanich. The existing signalled intersection is the worst traffic bottleneck on Vancouver Island.

• Temporary rental bridge deployed into Toronto’s Humber Valley for access to embankment project

  One of our Algonquin Rental Bridge Systems recently helped the Toronto Region Conservation Authority (TRCA) reach an inaccessible bank of the Humber River for an important erosion control and slope stabilization project. The eroding bank was a risk to a large housing complex above and could only be accessed by crossing from a park on the opposite shore.

• Changing Humber Valley’s bridge timber decking to steel without a complete closure

  Humber Village is a private residential community of about 60 homes, near Corner Brook, NL, with its only connection to the Trans Canada Highway via a 423 m bridge. The steel beam structure over the Humber River had timber decking which was badly deteriorated. It was also dangerously narrow for pedestrian traffic.
