Engineers process data from underwater pier inspections
Recent markings on the piers of the Diefenbaker Bridge show where underwater inspections have taken place.
Scott Golding, manager of capital planning and strategic services with the public works department, said ISL Engineering and Land Services began inspections at the end of October.
“They had started doing some fieldwork here in the last week of October, so they had the sonar scan team out there with the boats,” Golding said.
“The field collection is finished. The engineers still have to process and review all the images and the data that were collected, so there’s some office time there. We have been in touch with the consultants and they’re working readily on that.”
