Bids Are Invited For Silver Summit And Sundance Trails Bridge Refurbishment - Foothills Natural Region, Lower Foothills Near Edson, Ab

Project Background:The Silver Summit And Sundance Trails Are Located On Public Lands Within The Edson Sno-Seekers (Alberta Snowmobile Association) Designated Trail Network Located In The Lower Foothills Subregion Of The Foothills Natural Region. Two Bridges Within The Trail System, Larrys Lunch Bridge And The 49 Creek Bridge, Serve As Critical Crossings And Require Rehabilitation To Restore Safe Passage For Recreational Users And Snow Grooming Equipment And To Preserve The Environmental Integrity Of The Waterway. As Part Of A Continuous Trail System, The Failure Of These Bridges Would Fragment The System, Thereby Reducing Usability, Potentially Deter Recreational Use And Hinder Snow Grooming Operations.The Access Point To The Two Bridges Is Approximately 24 Km Northwest Of Edson Off Highway 748 N / Amoco Road.Project Objective:The Intent Of This Project Is To Provide Structurally Sound And Environmentally Resilient Crossings That Reduce Future Maintenance Requirements, Support Long-Term Recreational Use Of The Trail Network, While Addressing Existing Erosion Concerns By Restoring The Two Snowmobile Bridges, Larry’S Lunch Bridge And 49 Creek Bridge.Please Refer To The Rfp For The Scope Of Work.
