Resource Bridges

Constructed with concrete and steel in remote Northern BC the 200 plus metres of bridge span the Skeena River. Access was limited to one side due to Environmental and remoteness issues. The completed concrete decked bridge opened up a new resource area in North West British Columbia in 1996.
