Bridge Installations and Removals
Bridges are a connecting structure that play a fundamental role in accessing and transporting natural resources. They span physical obstacles such as stream crossings and wetlands and provide safe and efficient transit for industrial and public use. The existence of bridges in the forest sector prevents disturbance to fish and wildlife habitat and allows streams and wetland ecosystems to remain environmentally sound. Other structures such as major culverts and enviro-culverts are also practical solutions for crossings.
Bridges and major culverts are periodically inspected for damage, defects and any possible adverse environmental impacts throughout their lifespan. In areas where natural resource obligations are complete, they will be scheduled for removal and deactivation therefore implementing restoration of the site.
There are a number of different crossing structures available and each are specifically selected and designed for site suitability. We have extensive experience in constructing, installing and removing a variety of permanent and temporary crossing structures and prioritizing safety and environmental integrity while completing project obligations.
