53 Avenue Overpass
About the Project
The 53 Avenue over Whitemud Drive Overpass is a two span structure built in 1977 which carries six lanes (includes two turning lanes) of traffic over the freeway with sidewalks on both sides. Maintenance and rehabilitation of this structure is required to keep it in safe, functional condition for many more years.
