SLSMC: 2009 Bridge No. 6 Replacement Study

H&H will be providing the following services:

Hardesty & Hanover, LLP and Byrne Engineering JV has been selected by the St. Lawrence Seaway Management Corporation to evaluate and prepare the replacement options for Bridge No. 6 over the Welland Canal, St. Catherine, Canada. The existing bridge comprises of two single leaf rolling lift bridges that seat on a common monolith at the center of the canal waterway. This arrangement gives the Corporation the flexibility of two lock passages for navigation traffic.

The study scope of work is to include three options, (1) rehabilitation to the existing structures, (2) replacement with two bascule bridges, and (3) replacement with two vertical lift bridges. H&H as part of the JV will study the third replacement option, and share the second option. Due to the high rail and navigational traffic, the staging of construction will be a critical aspect of the study option selected.
