Mandalay Private Residence Vehicular Bridge – Florida
This project presented many challenges, but YBC came prepared. Preserving the estuary with its delicate sea bed, sea grasses, and protected mangroves was paramount and the reason Ferreira Construction Group brought YBC into the project. For York Bridge Concepts’ this is where we shine. Using YBC’s Deck-Level Construction, we removed the dilapidated crossing structure and built a vehicular timber bridge that not only can handle the harsh saltwater environment but do so with elegance.
