Bridge Construction Work

The Town of East Gwillimbury (EG) performs inspections, replacements, and rehabilitations for all Town-owned bridges.

Bridge inspections

We inspect bridges every two years as required by Provincial Standard O. Reg. 472/10. The inspections performed ensure the structural integrity, safety, and condition of every Town-owned bridge.

Bridge replacement

Bridge replacement work often involves a redesign to improve its function, followed by the removal and replacement of the bridge structure. While completing replacement work, we may need to temporarily close roads and offer detour routes.

Bridge rehabilitation

Bridge rehabilitations involve repairs to a bridge without replacing the entire bridge structure. This includes work such as repairing the:

• Road surface
• Expansion joints
• Damaged concrete

It also includes restoring the material around the bridge. While completing rehabilitation work, we may need to temporarily close roads and offer detour routes.
