A Bridge too far gone

Demolition workers begin disassembling the 70-year-old Keith Road bridge after it was lifted out of its original position and placed at the side of the road.

The District of North Vancouver has reduced Keith Road to single-lane alternating traffic at Mountain Highway between the hours of 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. while the old bridge is cut apart and removed. That is expected to last until mid-next week.

Once it is removed, construction work will begin on the remainder of the new bridge, which will ultimately have five lanes plus wider sidewalks and bike paths. The project is expected to be completed in the fall.
