Alexandra Bridge, Road bridge in Fraser Canyon, Canada

The Alexandra Bridge extends 487 meters across the Fraser River, featuring a steel arch span of 257 meters between steep canyon walls.

The bridge construction started in 1958 and faced initial delays due to ground conditions before its completion and opening in October 1962.

Two aluminum fish sculptures stand at both ends of the bridge, representing the connection between the structure and the Fraser River environment.

The bridge carries Highway 1 traffic across the Fraser River, connecting the regions north of Hope with those south of Lytton.

At its inauguration in 1962, this steel structure ranked as the second longest arch bridge of its type worldwide and remains the longest in Fraser Canyon.
