Description:
In March 2008, Pennecon Heavy Civil Ltd. was awarded the $8.1 million contract for the

Level, Alberta.
The bridge construction consisted of a new three span 140m Steel Girder Bridge on a
concrete substructure and a high performance concrete deck with asphalt concrete
overlay. A two year construction period was required due to fishery window(s) and the
climate in Northern Alberta.
Year one construction included the installation of the concrete substructure and steel
girders, with year two construction consisting of the placing of the high performance
concrete deck, parapet and asphalt concrete overlay. Construction commenced in July
2008 and was completed in October 2009.
