  • Fast moving floodwaters caused the collapse of the Imperial Road Bridge over Catfish Creek in Port Bruce, taking an unsuspecting dump truck driver crossing the bridge down with it into the fast moving waters below. Once the truck and driver were removed to safety and the dust settled, it was clear the removal of the collapsed bridge was going to be environmentally sensitive, dangerous, and complicated. A 70' section was sitting horizontally on the riverbed with four feet of water flowing over the deck, an 81' section was at a 45 degree angle, resting on a pier, and an 88' section was still erect sitting on a pier and abutment cantilevered out over the ~120' wide creek. The County of Elgin contracted PDI to remedy this dangerous situation.

    A group of professions explaining calmly and clearly what they’re doing.
    A narrator who was apparently told to sound like Dan Aykroyd snorting cocaine while watching the Hiddenberg explode.

    It's a shame. Your videos used to be fun, informative videos on your company's work that actually showed the work you did and how it was done. Now they're just 5 minute ads put together by people with less than half a clue about your work.

    I recently watched an episode of Heavy Rescue 401 where they showed the recovery of the dump truck. This post was equally interesting. The narrator however was too overly dramatic with his presentation. Still, a really great post.👍

    SAVING on rebar ore just bad enginering always becomes expensive later. hehe
    even say 1000 tons of rebar is pointless if placed in the wrong place in a construction.
    i used to work in construction when i was younger it somtimes lookd silly when you laid out rebar for a wide span concrete floor following the enginers instructions and drawings but when you saw the rebar laid out it made more sence.

    “Float it across”? I would think that you’d want to tear down the 8000 as little as you could. You couldn’t flatbed it across another bridge?
