Pitt River Bridge, Cable-stayed bridge in Port Coquitlam and Pitt Meadows, Canada.

The Pitt River Bridge features a 380-meter cable-stay structure with 126 meters of multi-span approaches connecting Port Coquitlam and Pitt Meadows in British Columbia.

Before the current bridge opened in 2009, three previous structures served the area, with the first bridge constructed in 1915 at a cost of 800,000 dollars.

The bridge functions as a central element in community events, providing space for charity walks and cycling competitions that connect residents from both municipalities.

The bridge accommodates 79,000 vehicles daily and includes dedicated lanes for pedestrians and cyclists, making it accessible for multiple transportation methods.

The bridge construction involved extensive engineering considerations to replace an aging counterflow system that reversed lanes during morning and evening rush hours.
