Oak Street Bridge, Girder bridge connecting Vancouver and Richmond, British Columbia, Canada
The Oak Street Bridge spans 1,839 meters across the north arm of the Fraser River with steel plate girders and concrete approaches.
The construction of the bridge in 1957 replaced the Marpole Bridge and established a direct path to Vancouver International Airport.
The bridge's construction influenced local business patterns, causing shifts in residential structures and commercial developments along the connecting routes.
Daily traffic reaches 85,000 vehicles crossing between Vancouver and Richmond, serving as a primary transportation link in Metro Vancouver.
Engineers incorporated steel plate girders from the second Granville Street Bridge into the structure, creating spans of 60.9, 91.4, and 60.9 meters.
