An important chapter in the history of the new Champlain Bridge construction is completed with the end of the box-girders installation of its approaches. Indeed, the conclusion of this work is also the end of an exciting adventure:
- Design of these parts in 2015
- Fabrication at CANAM and its subcontractors from February 2016 to June 2018
- Delivery on site from November 2016 to September 2018
- Installation at the West Approach : August 2017 to early October 2018
