埃德蒙顿（Edmonton）长期延长的1.55亿美元的沃尔特代尔桥（Walterdale Bridge）取代了北萨斯喀彻温河（North Saskatchewan River）的103年历史，定于9月底开放，此前两年以上的延误预计将触发数百万美元西班牙企业集团Acciona和加拿大基础设施建设者PACER CORP的合资企业的处罚。
女发言人凯利·菲茨吉布邦（Kelly Fitzgibbon）表示，206米长跨度的开业将是对Acciona-Pacer合资企业（APJV）的重大缓解，该合资企业每天根据与该市的合同评估17,000美元的罚款。为城市的基础设施部门。
By the time the bridge opens, the penalties may exceed $5 million, according to FitzGibbon.
"This delay is very disappointing, but the City's contract management processes have ensured that the City and taxpayers are protected in terms of cost implications," reads a statement on the city's website. "All costs for the delay are borne by the contractor."
埃德蒙顿桥的时间表分开
据加拿大消息人士称，该项目的时间表于2015年开始解开，当时韩国钢铁制造商Daewoo未能交付桥梁拱门，甲板和其他关键作品的组件。钢铁最初原定交付的几个月后，钢铁就在滴水中滴落，最终的拱门部分仅在2015年10月交付，这是该桥已被打开后的四个月。
In addition, Winnipeg-based Capitol Steel, the project's former steel erector, claims the late-arriving steel had serious defects. In an ongoing lawsuit filed in the Court of the Queen's Bench in Edmonton, Capitol Steel contends APJV required it to work with defectively fabricated steel and implement improper repair procedures.
In July 2015, APJV brought in another subcontractor, CentralSteel, to repair the steel structure. In its lawsuit, Capitol Steel contends that the repair work was subpar, including welds that did not meet "Canadian welding and bridge-construction codes" as well as "bolt-material test reports" that did not meet authorized standards.
该公司首席顾问亚伦·伦敦（Aaron London）表示，国会大厦的法律团队现在正在收集宣誓书的信息。
APJV和参与该项目的其他公司无法就该争议发表评论。但是在加拿大媒体的新闻报道中，APJV将大厦钢铁归咎于许多问题。
诉讼涉及钢缺陷的责任
埃德蒙顿基础设施部发言人菲茨吉本（Fitzgibbon）表示，该市无法就正在进行的诉讼发表评论。
在APJV诉讼申请文件的一个帐户中，合资企业指控，实际上，国会大厦钢铁公司负责大部分项目延迟，而分包商“反复改变了维修程序，以增加成本并放慢[Capitol Steel]的适当完成。维修工作，” CBC报道。
Damages of $10,000 a day for site occupancy began piling up, starting on June 12, 2015, the original date APJV set for the opening of the new Walterdale Bridge, according to FitzGibbon. An additional $7,000 a day for administrative costs—"consultants, city personnel, extra maintenance/traffic and other incidentals to support the project"—began accruing on Oct. 15, 2016.
但是，埃德蒙顿官员在项目完成后不会向最终法案呈现APJV，并且“在提交并考虑所有变更订单时”。
