Chaudière Bridge, Steel bridge over Ottawa River between Ontario and Quebec, Canada
The Chaudière Bridge consists of eight connected structures spanning multiple waterways, connecting Booth Street in Ottawa with Rue Eddy in Gatineau.
The first bridge at this location opened in 1828 as the Union Bridge, constructed from wood, and later underwent reconstruction with iron in 1843.
The bridge represents the physical connection between Ontario and Quebec provinces, facilitating daily exchanges between French and English-speaking communities.
The crossing accommodates over 15,000 vehicles per day and includes a separate walkway for pedestrians traveling between the two provincial capitals.
The bridge passes through an industrial complex near Chaudière Falls, where water from the Ottawa River flows beneath all eight structural components.
