Peace Bridge Calgary
The pedestrian and cyclist bridge connects the modern business district Down Town with the City and crosses the Bow River at the Western end of Prince's Island Park.
The bridge catches the eye by the massive steel frame. In addition to the roof glazing, GIG was responsible for the production of the balustrade and handrail.
In addition to the high architectural demands with oversized components, it was imperative to combine the steel construction tolerances with the extreme local temperature fluctuations and movements of the bridge, in which we succeeded to the complete satisfaction of the architect and the client.
