- The Ministry of Transportation is replacing Highway 417 bridges at five locations along Highway 417 due to the deteriorating condition of the bridges.
The project involves replacement of the existing Highway 417 eastbound and westbound rigid-frame bridges at Preston Street, Rochester Street, Booth Street, Bronson Avenue and Percy Street using a Rapid Bridge Replacement (RBR) technology. RBR technology involves constructing the new bridges in a staging area and during a full traffic shutdown of Highway 417 demolition the existing bridge and move the new bridge into place over a 4 -day weekend period.
Additional work will be completed to rehabilitate infrastructure in the Highway 417 corridor and provide operational improvements and noise barrier replacements. The project includes the following work:
Preparation of the construction staging areas associated with the construction of each of the replacement bridges within these areas.
In-place demolition of the existing bridges, including excavation of the existing bridge approaches to accommodate the rapid bridge replacement.
Transportation of the bridge from the construction staging area to the bridge site using Self-Propelled Modular Transporters (SPMTs).
Building demolition at 458 Catherine Street.
Replacement of 4.5 km existing noise barriers from Island Park Drive to Kent Street and construction of 860 m of new noise barriers under the Noise Barrier Retrofit Program within the same limits.
Rehabilitation/replacement of existing retaining walls from Island Park Drive to Kent Street.
Construction of related works, including roadside barriers, pavement rehabilitation, drainage improvements, modifications to illumination/ATMS, and site restoration including landscaping as required.
Improvements to the Bronson Avenue Interchange including lengthening of the westbound on-ramp and eastbound off-ramps; re-alignment of Chamberlain Avenue; drainage improvements; traffic signals and associated roadway illumination; and site restoration including landscaping as required.
This took over 150 GB of local storage and a week to process to remove the camera shake from the wind. There are also about 40 cuts removing parts where there was no data.
Total construction time 3 days, 3 hours and 55 minutes (about 76 hours)

My hat is off to the workers, and especially those who orchestrated the symphony of trucks, shovels, and pavers! Magnificent!
@@markvanderknoop131 That was totally uncalled for.
Don't take your hat off, this is a construction zone

@@markg.2501 Yea they were being excessively grumpy and annoying so I removed them from this channel :D
4:33 When the bridge segment tarted moving on the left hand side, I was like wow, wtf am I seeing here? Lol. At first I thought it was someone's garage, not knowing it was a damn pre-fabbed bridge segment about to be moved into place. Amazing time lapse. Beautiful (coming from an engineer that loves to see things constructed from beginning to end).
I don't know about prefab. It was probably built on site, just not in place.
People in Ottawa just need to be paciente, takes a lot of planning and coordination to be able to do a project of this magnitude in just a few days….. first in the world. I salute the men and women that made this project posible 👷🏻♀️👷🏻♂️
Yeah so many people complaining about the highway being closed to not realizing how long it takes in other countries to do the same thing.. just look at the other comments on this 😂

@@NathanaelNewton We've been doing this for decades in the netherlands. I think you canadians copied it from us czcams.com/video/btOE0rcKDC0/video.html
Pretty amazing what they can do in such a short amount of time. And seeing it all happen in 75 seconds is pure eye candy. Good stuff man!
nah just money matters
@@JassonQuillexactly and highways actually loose a lot of money. They make no profit and they’re very unsustainable.
They run right through neighborhoods which was chosen decades ago due to the black people being poor and the government forcing everyone out dividing the rich and poor and they’re polluting asf.

Its neat how the new bridge was a 2 piece precast. Efficient and error free. Great view. 👍
I loved how you played a sped up version after the main timelapse. Very neat to watch!
Yeah, I thought it added another perspective 🙂
The things people take for granted in their day to day lives when driving down the road or highway. The people who make them possible and maintain them.
There is no substitute for hiring people who know what they are doing. Wonderful!
Thank you, this is awsome!
One of the best time lapses I've seen
You're welcome! I'm glad you enjoyed it :-)
There was so much to look at I love it

Awesome thanks
Amazing Time-lapse.
Glad you liked it
Beeindruckend. Hier in Deutschland gingen dafür 10 Monate ins Land, mit vielen Staus und Unfällen.., Respekt vor der Ingenieursleistung und dem Projektmanagement.
In Deutschland zerstört ihr aber nicht eure Radaufhängung auf der Autobahn. Oder Kopfschmerzen bekommen von die Unebenheit der Strassen die mit Schlaglöcher durchsetzt sind. Sei stolz auf Deutsche Ingenieursqualität weil sie ist unvergleichbar auf der Welt.
@@fridericusrex9812 Genau, bin ich ganz deiner Meinung. In Deutschland brauchen die für eine kleine Baustelle von 1 Kilometer Fahrbahnerneuerung 3 Wochen und länger. Warum? Weil die Bauarbeiter nach Zeit bezahlt kriegen und deswegen lassen die sich genug Zeit. Ich kann sowas nicht nachvollziehen. Genau wie mit den Ampelschaltungen hier. Es kotzt einen nur noch an jeden Tag. An einer grünen Ampel fährt man los und an der nächsten wird man zum anhalten gezwungen, weil die auf ROT schaltet. Warum wird so ein Schwachsinn geschaltet?? In den USA und in Kanada werden die Ampeln in Reihe geschaltet, damit der Verkehrsfluß gegeben ist und die ganzen Baufirmen in den USA und Kanada kriegen eine bestimmte Zeit vorgegeben und wenn die das in der Zeit nicht schaffen, dann muß der Bauunternehmer eine saftige Strafe bezahlen! Hier in Deutschland ist das alles scheißegal!!!
Gosh, in California, this would take approximately six months to a year longer than expected to be complete. It would also be anywhere from $5M to $1B over budget 🤣
Actually, California High Speed Rail is at least 8 years behind schedule, 40+ billion over budget and they had to bypass a bunch of environmental regulations just to keep it moving forward.
You've got Elon musk to thank for that
There's a tiny bridge in Virginia near my work that has been under construction/improvements since I started the job a year ago. Supposed to be a 4 lane bridge but it's barely 2. Pretty sure they started it nearly 2 years ago. It's only about 150' long.
@@ifmbm332bplus a lot of negotiations.
Awesome
In the UK in the late 1950s they completed 55 miles of motorway, including 100 bridges, tunnels and under/over passes in 18 months.
In 2020, in Scotland, they started a project to build an interchange and bridge over a river, it was held up for two years but its completion date is 3 years, for ONE interchange and a two section bridge. How far we have come that it takes longer to complete this even with all the technological advances, than it did to build 100 structures and 55 miles of roadway.
They could have done a time-lapse film of it but most of it would have no movement at all, the camera would have to have been replaced and they would need a server farm to store it all.
In Italy In 50s and 60's we made the Autosole, a 500 km highway, in 8 years, with dozens of bridges and tunnels. In 2015 they wanted to build an highway that connects several cities in the Padana Plan, a 60 or 80 km journey. We are still waiting they decide the tracks
It now takes them the same time to fill a pothole
@unisonjordan2435 roads are the problem, we have too many of them, we should rail transit instead like most civilized countries...
best video ever ! WoAaw !! Congrats for all this work ! You can be proud of u !!
Haha thanks :)
I was awake for the entire event!
That sounds super unhealthy D:
Hats off to the staffs.
Организация работ - на высочайшем уровне.
And here in Belarus it took six months to build the same bridge. But, of course, the design was a little more complicated. Soviet-made concrete. Concrete that went mainly to bunkers. As a result, the builders had to blow up several times
Thx 👍🏾😎 Greetings from 🇩🇪
I loved those three tall ghosts that walk from the center after the car crash to the left bottom corner of the screen, and then they reappeared after the thing was almost done, coming from the right upper corner to center and stood there for a minute. One raise the glass like he was toasting - or waving - and then he stood there while the others went on , as à bird kept landing on flying off of his head, anyway that's what it looked like to me, I know it wasn't but still that's what I thought it resembled and I thought it was
Cool as hell.
That was the coolest bridge move.
Super 👍
Thank you 👍
I love these videos and music is just right!
🎵 Oomph oomph 🎵
amazing work carried out there in such a small time scale, here in the great Brittan, hah! WHAT A JOKE! the road workers spend more time messing about and talking, no heart in there work. and half the time its rushed and never level. the amount of layers they did to insure good quality in this video was outstanding!!. just wish we had workers like this in the uk. take there time so much dragging out the job.
Out of interest, can I ask - what equipment was used (DLSR or IPCAM) and what was your image capture rate throughout?
I'm pretty sure they used an IP camera, it was live streamed in real time with at least a 15 to 20 FPS rate.
I created the time lapse from the stream feed, edited out a bunch of glitches, added music, Etc
The livestream was an IP PTZ camera running 15FPS. We also had a Time-lapse running on a DSLR for our time-lapse video...
Source: I'm the one who installed it.
@NathanaelNewton you should at least credit @ceecam as the source
That's a fair point. I've updated the description.
@NathanaelNewton thank you! I just believe in credit when credit is due.
@@ElevatedEyes2023 I feel bad for having not done that already.. I was dealing with a lot of things in life back when I made this time lapse and while that's not an excuse, I do wish I had thought of it already.
Thank you for reaching out, maybe if you're interested someday we could work together in the future.
I remember when they widened the Queensway(417). It was a challenge to travel while the lane closures were necessary to accommodate 3 lanes in each direction. Bridges had to be replaced with wider ones and because Ottawa was totally reliant on the 417, things haf to be done without as much disruption as possible. At that time I was driving a schoolbus from the east end to the west end each weekday. Not much fun!
Car centric society was such a horrible mistake..
@@NathanaelNewton It would have been much better if they had adopted light rail earlier, but not the crappy system they ended up with. I had to travel across town and discovered that the light rail system might have saved 2 minutes. Not made for the winter either.
Parabéns top
PQP!! Tanta informação acontecendo ao mesmo tempo.
WOWWWWWW
And the Oscar goes to………………………………………….LOGISTICS!
Haha yes 💯
Reminds me of a saying about the US military
"The US military is a logistics company that dabbles in combat"
This is really great. I am super impressed with the prefabbed bridge parts. This is close to Japanese level.
also great videography, please upload more
Hell yeah
Oddly enthusiastic, but I'll take it
Every machine , truk , excavator lets dance music
🎶🕺💃🎵
In South Africa that would have been a 5 year year project with massive cost overruns.
A nice video! What was the purpose of the replacement? There were three lanes in each direction before and after the replacement. So what is the improvement?
Modernization and upkeep of aging infrastructure
To be fair, there is room for a fourth lane but that comes when they are finished replacing all the bridges( or underpasses) in the Downtown core.
Maybie I didn't see but how much time did they take for the entire operation ? Thanks
I think it was around 80 hours, at the top left of the video there's a time/date stamp.
Seemed like it interrupted. Rush hour a little bit on either side of what i'm guessing was a weekend
In Germany we need years for this simple process. :)
The speed is based on the priority & cost/benefit analysis on road closure times..
They should remove the entire Queensway and restore the CN tracks!! (Said by a die-hard train buff)
I totally agree! Removing the train tracks was a huge mistake.. it's incredible to see how much rail there used to be when you look at the city of Ottawa's arial historical Imaging database..
@@NathanaelNewton Nice to hear from a kindred spirit! Next on the agenda: return the trains to Union Station on Wellington and over the Alexandra bridge to Hull. Then reconnect the Prince of Wales bridge to the Hull tracks and restore the Scott St. tracks. The Gréber recommendations were the worst things to happen to Ottawa. (He mustn't have been a train buff.)
Are you familiar with the the new york central train line? I've walked the whole way from Newington to Cornwall and driven along a lot of the train bed farther north... I knew a guy that remembered riding it in the 60s I think, He drove us as kids around the area and told us the history.. He passed last year, I wish I had made videos of him.. Ahh well..
@@NathanaelNewton I may have heard of it, but am not familiar with it. I have a map of Ontario railway lines from yesteryear and it is extensive . . . then the car became king. NYC is a city whose rail history I have followed. From the High Line to the Hell Gate Bridge and the old Penn station, there's much to be explored (not to mention the subway system!). And then there's Niagara Falls, where I walk along the path that used to be a rail line that crossed the top of Clifton Hill and which had its own bridge across the Niagara River. There's talk that VIA may rebuild the line from Toronto to Peterborough to Ottawa. That would be cool.
It would not take very many of those to make a dozen.

Cepet banget 4 hari kyaknya, disini 1 bulan belum tentu jadi🤣
Lol in the UK it takes them 3 days to put the traffic cones out and then a year to build a bridge like that
Badass how long to finish it?
3 days, 3 hours and 55 minutes (about 76 hours)
If this was in Australia it would be months until it was completed.
In Montréal it would take 18 months with the same amount of people and machines.
Really impressive but... why did they have to replace it? Any structural failure was detected?🤔
See description :)
4 night aur 4 day main bridge completely done . "That's off worker"
What was the problem with old bridge?
It was end of life and at risk of further degradation and eventual collapse, it was time to replace it.
This would've take 4 years in the states.
solo fueron 2 dias y medio!!!! ponele 3 dias con toda la furia
Incredible how they build everything in less than a week, here in Cartagena Colombia, it takes 5 years to build a bridge and in the sixth year it falls down😂😂😂😂
To be fair, the bridge was built off to the side over many days and then quickly moved into place over a weekend 😅
😊👍🙏🏻👍👽👍
It seems like removing the old tunnel/bridge could have been done the same way as the new prefab pieces were put in. Thoughts?
By driving it out on mammoot heavy lift modules? How would that even work?
Yes, the megalift drives in under the old section, two large cuts across the highway and 2 under cuts on the walls of tunnel. Then drive it out in the way the new bridge sections went in. Obviously an oversimplification, but if pre-planned it could save 24-36hours of demolition time because the demo could happen out of the way of the site prep.
Is the old tunnel a double tube and the new one a single tube to replace it? Hard to see.
@@gsantee Thats a smart idea!
Great job guys..... take rest of the week off 😅
Amazing timelapse, thoroughly enjoyed it! Isn't it funny though, that bridges only built in the 60s or even later are already reaching "end of life" and having to be replaced, yet there's the world's first iron bridge built in 1779, various railway viaducts and bridges, and Tower Bridge in London completed in 1894 _with moving parts_ that are still standing and in regular use today. Sure they've had maintenance, a bit of paint and even some renovation works done - but they haven't needed to be entirely torn down and replaced with a new version. And yet we still claim modern building techniques are always better, stronger, longer lasting etc.
True but iron bridges and moving parts can be replaced and upgraded one piece at a time without removing the whole structure.. eventually everything gets replaced so the original structure is completely gone.
Similar to what they do with high voltage power lines like here:

Thanks for watching 💜
i like how there had a excavator there and never used it
It's the decoration excavator!
У нас бы два года строили и в смету не уложились 😢
76 hours to finish this project? In China, it may only take 7.6 hours to complete.
i need context... what's the purpose of the bridge replacement?
The Ministry of Transportation is replacing Highway 417 bridges at five locations along Highway 417 due to the deteriorating condition of the bridges.
The project involves replacement of the existing Highway 417 eastbound and westbound rigid-frame bridges at Preston Street, Rochester Street, Booth Street, Bronson Avenue and Percy Street using a Rapid Bridge Replacement (RBR) technology. RBR technology involves constructing the new bridges in a staging area and during a full traffic shutdown of Highway 417 demolition the existing bridge and move the new bridge into place over a 4 -day weekend period.
Additional work will be completed to rehabilitate infrastructure in the Highway 417 corridor and provide operational improvements and noise barrier replacements. The project includes the following work:
Preparation of the construction staging areas associated with the construction of each of the replacement bridges within these areas.
In-place demolition of the existing bridges, including excavation of the existing bridge approaches to accommodate the rapid bridge replacement.
Transportation of the bridge from the construction staging area to the bridge site using Self-Propelled Modular Transporters (SPMTs).
Building demolition at 458 Catherine Street.
Replacement of 4.5 km existing noise barriers from Island Park Drive to Kent Street and construction of 860 m of new noise barriers under the Noise Barrier Retrofit Program within the same limits.
Rehabilitation/replacement of existing retaining walls from Island Park Drive to Kent Street.
Construction of related works, including roadside barriers, pavement rehabilitation, drainage improvements, modifications to illumination/ATMS, and site restoration including landscaping as required.
Improvements to the Bronson Avenue Interchange including lengthening of the westbound on-ramp and eastbound off-ramps; re-alignment of Chamberlain Avenue; drainage improvements; traffic signals and associated roadway illumination; and site restoration including landscaping as required.
@@NathanaelNewton thank you, cheers!
Damn my lowkey ass thought they was moving a building. I was like why they moving a building while there doing construction 😂😂
Я тоже подумал,что какое-то строение,типа склада. Потом как увидел движение и просто 😱 😁
84 hours of night and day shift for those men hat off
In Poland this operation would take 2 years
Impressive, but when do north Americans learn, that adding lanes won't solve traffic problems. Everything above three (maximum four) lanes is just more parking space during the not prevented traffic jam.
1 lane has a capacity of about 1800 vehicles per hour
2 lanes don't add up to 3600 but only 2300 - 2500 due to lane changes and more effects
3 lanes give you about 200 more
4 lanes even less
...
And somewhere the wide section will end or there will be a big intersection with a lot of merging traffic and then the jam will start from there, instead of a mile before. Always take care of the weakest links first and those are rarely the free flow sections.
Oh I totally agree, if you look at some of the other comments you will see us discussing how we wish they would rip up all the highways and replace them trains 😞 If you look back at the 1960s this was actually a rail line 🤦
If they worked like this in Houston, Texas, the city would've ended construction some two hundred years ago. 😂
For real though they NEVER get done constructing or renovating a highway in under a year...
It's sad that it takes a company to rebuild a bridge that is only a 2 lane road 2 years to do and this project only took 3 and half days to build.
In Germany they would've have closed the road for 6 Months
Only 6 months?
Went to Coburg last November and there were more delays than normal traffic.

@@user-is2mp6zz2q и все де он одинок😁
they should've used concrete instead of asphalt for the road surface since this is a highway & highways are normally paved with concrete. would also be wild if they blew up the old bridge with TNT like Minecraft. there are also a couple pieces for a new bridge that has been delayed since the dates it was scheduled there was a flood. I passed by them last weekend & the Mammoet SPMTs are still under them.
This is Canada, we use asphalt rather than concrete for our road surfaces.
Concrete in that climate would require a bunch of upkeep. If you want a good idea on how it would go, check out street view of I-95 as it goes through Pelham and New Rochelle NY. Lots of squares cut out and re-done and it causes all sorts of unevenness in the deck. That asphalt cap is a lifesaver for stuff like that. Every 15-20 years you just eat the cap off and relay it in no time flat. Saves the concrete underlayment.
Concrete doesn't old up well to the Canadian climate. The freeze in winter cause cracks to form all over..
@@markvanderknoop131 did you mean expensive or expansive cause they're two very different things. Also concrete is very recyclable.
Asphalt is far superior than concrete unless you are dealing with consistently hot climates (as the bitumen in the AC won't hold up and start bleeding). AC is better in almost every other way though. It's more flexible, which reduces breakage and makes it better for vehicles. It's also cheaper and quicker/easier to implement than concrete, not to mention easier to maintain. It won't last as long as concrete but that does depend on climate once again. If it's too cold with too high of traffic volume, the concrete will crack easily because of it's rigidity.
Here in Brazil don't exist bridge pronta
What is bridge pronta?
You guys in Ottawa think you're so great. Try doing the same bridge through twelve different generations and hundreds of different vendors with new plans every 33 and a half hours like we do in Texas. You won't be able to drive on it for so long no one will remember why you started digging and they'll stop funding. I'm not saying we're better, I'm just saying you should try it.
I got halfway through this comment before I realized it wasn't toxic 😂
Sad that this took a full three days to complete. I would've seen it done in no more than 18-24 hours. Blast the bridge out with explosives (3 hours [includes shutting down hwy and laying dynamite] [holes pre-drilled the weekend before]), clean the rubble (2 hours), blast the hillsides out (completed as soon as the center is clear), clean the rubble again (2 hours), re-grade and form the new edges (concurrent with rubble removal, so +1 hour), move the tunnels in (90 mins), back-fill (3 hours), level (3 hours), pave (3-6 hours [depending if it's done concurrently and how much they need to re-pave on the lead up]). Paint (30 mins) and done. The only reason it took them 14 hours to pave is because they only had 1 paver working the whole site. There should've been no less than 2 pavers going at any given time. Also notice that after the flurry of activity the first night, there's not actually all that many machines working. Lots of people supervising but not nearly enough dozers to push all the gravel in. Also what's the deal with the daisy chain? Have the dump trucks deliver the stone to the edge, not a full 30 yards back so they have to then have a pair of dozers pushing in. And why only a single excavator on the back-fill duty? They should have put a ramp up to the top of the tunnel once it was settled in and put 4 excavators up on top and done the back-filling from there.
That's a waste of money. There's hardly any traffic over the weekend and it's a short detour. What you suggest would have significantly increased the cost of the project for no good reason.
@@NathanaelNewton Think big picture. How much staging did they do prior to this dig? Look at the foreground - that dirt hill didnt appear out of nothing. Nor did the giant blocked off area on the far side of the bridge where all the managers hung out (where the tunnels come out of). This was a long term project already. I'm just saying, it couldve been done faster
On a tangential issue, NONE of that heavy equipment used there could ever be battery electric. The idea is completely absurd. For several reasons.

Быстро - хорошо не бывает! Возможна просадка грунта на въезде на мост и при съезде с него! Лучше всего подождать, когда осадка произойдет естественным путем! В противном случае через год придется делать ремонт!
That's why they used so much gravel and compacted it with vibratory rollers when installing it.. I don't believe it's going to subside at all.
Why always construction video always have banger music 😂, nice choice of music tho
I cannot say, I like this music and use it in several types of videos
