YRB resuming Taylor Bridge deck welding next week

TAYLOR, B.C. — YRB North Peace is going to be commencing welding operations on the metal deck of the Taylor Bridge next week.

Welding operations will be starting on Tuesday, September 5th, and will run through until the last day of the month. Repairs will be carried out Monday – Saturday between 7:00 p.m. and 3:30 a.m. During these times, the bridge will be reduced to single-lane alternating traffic with delays of up to 20 minutes in both directions directed by a pilot vehicle. YRB asks motorists using the bridge during these times to drive with caution, as there will be a large number of working personnel and equipment.

YRB is apologizing for any inconvenience the work may cause. Updates on this and other road work can be found online at DriveBC.ca. For questions or concerns, or to report a load that is 3.6 metres or wider that is scheduled to cross the bridge during welding, please contact YRB’s office toll free at 1-888-883-6688.
