The 100 Adelaide Street West development project in downtown Toronto had the potential to cause significant traffic disruption to nearby businesses. To minimize this, Acrow provided a 120 foot (36.58m) prefabricated modular steel bridge to serve as a temporary ramp across an excavation site, enabling secure vehicular access to loading docks serving buildings in the vicinity.

The roadway solution was designed to be transported through one of the busiest sections of the city and installed quickly and securely on a 12% slope. It was supplied with roof beams to accommodate a protective roof, eliminating the need for a costly deck heating system.

The Adelaide Street ramp was modeled after the heavy haul bridge that Acrow developed for the World Trade Center in New York City, which was used as a ramp for construction crews at Ground Zero. Acrow’s easy-to-assemble modular steel bridges are engineered to support heavy loads and constant traffic year in and year out, making them ideal for use on heavy industrial and building construction sites.
