Prince George, B.C. - Looks like the Cameron Street Bridge won’t be completed and “Officially opened” until late July.
In a report to be presented to Prince George City Council this evening Superintendent of Operations, Bill Gaal says the work to complete the bridge will “extend into the summer”.
There is still a great deal of work to be done. The old spans have been removed and the steel girders put in place but the watermain has yet to be attached to the bridge and the roundabout needs to be constructed at the north end of the bridge.
The construction of the roundabout will follow the watermain work once the weather conditions allow for it. The roundabout still needs to be brought to sub-grade elevation, catch basins & electrical fixtures require installation, then the crush base will be placed, concrete curb & gutter and sidewalks will be installed and preparation for, and paving can then take place.
It will be mid July before Council sees a proposal for the opening ceremony for the bridge.
