Derwent Way Bridge, Road and rail swing bridge in New Westminster, Canada.

The Derwent Way Bridge extends across the Annacis Channel of the Fraser River, connecting Queensborough on Lulu Island to Annacis Island in Delta.

The original structure from 1955 was replaced by the current bridge, which opened in 1986 to meet increasing transportation demands in British Columbia.

The bridge serves as a central connection point for local communities, enabling daily interactions between residents of New Westminster and Delta regions.

Two traffic lanes accommodate vehicles while dedicated paths allow safe passage for pedestrians and cyclists crossing between the islands.

The bridge rotates on its axis to create a clearance for maritime vessels navigating through the Annacis Channel of the Fraser River.

Location: British Columbia

Official opening: 1986
