The 141 Bay Pedestrian Bridges Project involves the construction of two structural steel bridges over Toronto’s Bay Street and Yonge Street. The Union Bridge was completed in early 2024. The Yonge Bridge will be installed in multiple segments, connecting the new 141 Bay Tower with 1 Esplanade.
Walters Group is responsible for the fabrication and erection of the pedestrian bridges. Walters Field Services manages the complex logistics of the installation process, including coordinating lane closures and scheduling deliveries.

The project requires precise coordination due to the limited on-site storage space and the need to align with city-approved lane closures. Special permits and escorts are needed for the oversized segments, and the portal frames must be installed in a specific sequence to match the overnight lane closures, with portions of the frames being AESS4, requiring high-quality finishing for a seamless appearance.
