The Sombrio Bridge, on Highway 14 near Port Renfrew, was upgraded from a single-lane timber bridge to a flashy two-lane, 124-metre-long concrete and steel bridge on a new 1.2 kilometre highway alignment. The new alignment was constructed to a 70km-h standard with 3.6-metre-wide lanes and 1.5 metres of paved shoulders. We also paved and realigned the bridge approaches and resurfaced 5.4 kilometres of the highway east from Sombrio ending near Lines Creek. You might notice other improvements we've made in the area: we widened the approaches and added roadside safety barriers to the Baird and Murton bridges, and upgraded the concrete structure for the Sombrio No. 3 Bridge.
