Skybridge, Cable-stayed railway bridge in Metro Vancouver, Canada
The Skybridge spans 616 meters across the Fraser River, connecting New Westminster and Surrey through two parallel tracks for SkyTrain operations.
Construction of the bridge began in 1987 by Hyundai Engineering and Kerkhoff Construction, completing the first section toward Surrey before finishing the New Westminster portion.
The bridge stands as a representation of transportation infrastructure advancement in British Columbia, marking a shift toward efficient public transit systems.
Passengers can cross the Fraser River via regular SkyTrain service on the Expo Line, which operates between King George Station and Waterfront Station.
The structure incorporates 104 pre-fabricated concrete sections that were transported by barge and assembled using epoxy resin to create the bridge deck.
