New reinforced concrete bridge over Fraser River has four 12 ft lanes and two 5 ft sidewalks; riveted plate girders of 300 ft main span and two 186 ft side spans are supported on reinforced concrete piers and tremie concrete footings founded on glacial till; use of vertical and battered piles in pier foundations; softness of soil required that all formwork rest on foundations; light weight concrete in slab deck reduced dead load and meant savings in steel weight.
