Building Products & Concrete Supply Makes Headway with Major Bridge Rehabilitation Project

Winnipeg, MB – In early spring of 2023, Building Products & Concrete Supply (BP Concrete) began working with MD Steele Construction on the St. Vital Bridge rehabilitation project at Dunkirk Drive and Osborne Street. The project is a necessary investment, as the bridge and surrounding road network were in serious need of structural maintenance and repair.

Upon completion, the bridge deck will be widened, which will offer an added multi-use pathway on both sides for pedestrians, improved accessibility for public transportation, and increased service life of the structure for 50 years.

The strict parameters on the specification requirements for the project required an ‘all-hands-on-deck’ approach to the pours. BP Concrete’s quality control department and production team used their extensive experience creating the mixtures and ensuring the strength and performance fell in line with the City of Winnipeg’s expectations.

The project is expected to wrap up for the winter by the end of 2023.
