Norwood Bridge, Road bridge across Red River in Winnipeg, Canada.

The Norwood Bridge spans 167 meters across the Red River with five sections, connecting downtown Winnipeg to the Norwood district of St. Boniface.

First constructed in 1890 as a toll bridge, the current structure opened in 1999 after replacing earlier versions from 1904 and 1930.

The River Arch sculpture between the spans features golden wheat sheaves and a field image, reflecting Manitoba's agricultural heritage.

The bridge accommodates two-way vehicle traffic, includes dedicated lanes for cyclists, and maintains walkways for pedestrians crossing the Red River.

Construction workers used northern ice road techniques and flat-topped barges instead of traditional work bridges during the building process.
