Work has ended on Dawson ice bridge
Published 23/01/2018Yesterday evening, Government of Yukon staff and Tetra Tech engineers assessed the progress of the Dawson ice bridge.
Conditions have been challenging for the workers attempting to induce ice formation during the past week due to higher-than-normal temperatures. Based on the progress to date, engineers estimated that it would take a further 90 days to complete the bridge.
As a result, it was determined that there was not enough ice formation to justify the government continuing with the project.
