iceman Posted February 9 Report Share Posted February 9 A measly 24k for a million dollar bridge 220 feet long at a height over river with view of falls at 75 feet high Finally a permanent bridge in St-Georges!!!! 🤩 No more waiting after the ice! Trail 75 linking St-Georges to Beauceville! A lot of work and hard work! But we got it :) 👌 Club Motoneige Beauceville Inc #Motoneigebeaucesud Motoneige Beauce Sud 03-355 Hello snowmobiling friends of the Chaudière Appalaches. A team of volunteers is currently working to complete the financial arrangements for a new bridge over the Rivière Famine in St-Georges. Once completed, it will offer an incredible view of the Plamondon Falls. The project also includes the redevelopment of trails on both sides of the river. To date, business owners, our Members of Parliament, snowmobile clubs, Bombardier Recreational Products and the Desjardins Grand Fund have joined us in offering donations to help us realize this project, which is so important to all snowmobilers on Trail 75. Factory construction of the bridge has begun at structures SBL in St-Benoit, and the project is being carried out by Construction Binet. Excavation Lapointe et Fils will carry out the approaches and earthworks required to bring the bridge into place in 4 sections. As you can see, it's a big challenge for a small team of volunteers. Fellow snowmobilers who will be using this bridge during your 2025 outings, we need your help to finalize the project. A donation would be greatly appreciated. Each time you visit us, you'll be proud to have participated in this project for the snowmobiling family. The volunteer team looks forward to meeting you. To make a donation, contact Serge Lessard at: 581 372-1758 MrGutz, zeusand, nyskidooerinnewhampshire and 4 others 5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vt_bluyamaha54 Posted February 13 Report Share Posted February 13 Sounds like a very large project but it will make TQ75 Beauceville to St. George’s much easier iceman 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

revct1 Posted March 9 Report Share Posted March 9 Very, very nice. A monster of a lift. We haven't been in that area in awhile but we may have to make a trip there next season to see the bridge. I'm hoping the Federation has some permanent rights to the approaches for the bridge. Everybody out there, respect the trails. Please.
