The EllisDon Civil East team has expanded civil construction operations into the Atlantic region with a project win of the Musquodoboit Harbour Bridge

Replacement Project. This is the first major heavy civil project for EllisDon in the region. “I’m very proud of the Atlantic and Civil East teams whose

collaboration was key to successfully securing this milestone project. Here’s to announcing more project wins in the future.” Derek Love, Senior Vice

President and Area Manager, EllisDon Civil Division, said of the milestone.

The Musquodoboit Harbour Bridge is located 40km east of Halifax on Hwy Trunk 7 (Marine Drive) over the Musquodoboit River.

· The current structure of the Musquodoboit Harbour Bridge will be demolished and replaced by a new 48 metre long structure; the current bridge is only

45.7 metres.

· The new bridge will be made with structural steel I-girders, concrete spread footing, semi-integral concrete abutments, and a thin-slab concrete deck.

· Once completed, the new bridge will carry two lanes of traffic and a raised concrete pedestrian sidewalk.

· A temporary detour route adjacent to the work area will be constructed as the current traffic will need to be maintained

· Construction is slated to commence in early 2025

With a proven track record of delivering high-quality bridge and highway construction projects across Ontario, the team is thrilled to have the opportunity to

work in a new province and bring civil expertise to Atlantic Canada.
