North Arm Bridge

The North Arm Bridge extends 562 meters across the Fraser River, connecting Vancouver and Richmond with both pedestrian paths and train tracks.

The bridge construction completed in 2009 required a specific investment of 10 million dollars dedicated to its bicycle and pedestrian pathway system.

The bridge features a memorial plaque in its center section, commemorating construction worker Andrew Slobodian who lost his life during the building process.

The bridge maintains two parallel tracks for the Canada Line trains while offering a dedicated pathway beneath the deck for pedestrians and cyclists.

The structure rises 47 meters above the water, providing a clearance of 25 meters for river vessels passing underneath the main span.
