Bridge 17 on Concession 4 NDR in West Grey has reopened with an entirely new bridge deck.
A release from the municipality says, “Given the supply chain challenges during a pandemic,the municipality is pleased the bridge was open before year end, and the project was completed on budget.”
Mayor Christine Robinson says in a statement, “West Grey is committed to taking care of our essential infrastructure, and the rehabilitation of this bridge is an excellent example of that commitment.”
Robinson adds, “Additionally, leveraging funding from other orders of government has contributed to our ability
to address our infrastructure needs. We will continue working with the provincial and federal governments as we plan for future infrastructure maintenance, repairs or replacement.”
The scope of work for this bridge included the full removal and replacement of the wooden deck, and repainting the substructure and metal work.
The municipality says it worked with McLean Taylor Construction Limited, Triton Engineering Services Limited, and Doug Dixon and Associates.
