The work is for the Northeast Anthony Henday Drive, Gilbert River Bridge and Highway 20/73 Interchange.
The Northeast Anthony Henday Drive award was under a joint venture with Rapid-Span Structures. The project, which is a public-private partnership commissioned by Flatiron-Dragados-Aecon-Lafarge, calls for the fabrication of 14 steel highway bridges, including two major 322m structures across the North Saskatchewan River. The components supplied by Structal-Bridges will be fabricated at the Quebec City plant starting in December 2012 with deliveries beginning in spring 2013.
The Gilbert River Bridge is a 326m-long structure that will be erected 52m over the Gilbert River and 34th Street in Notre-Dame-des-Pins, Quebec. The agreement concluded with Coaticook-based Couillard Construction includes the fabrication and installation of 88 steel girders.
Structal-Bridges will also fabricate the steel components for a second bridge measuring 41m as well as for a footbridge. Goodco Z-Tech, part of Structal-Bridges, will supply 48 structural bearings and 5 expansion joints.
The third new project requires the fabrication of 66 steel girders for the reconstruction of the Highway 20 overpass located at the exit of the Pierre-Laporte Bridge in Lévis. The 317m structure spans both Highway 73 North and Highway 20.
