Lake Shore Boulevard Bailey Bridge, Steel footbridge in Toronto, Canada

The Lake Shore Boulevard Bailey Bridge spans 27.4 meters across Lake Shore Boulevard, connecting Exhibition Place with the Toronto waterfront area.

Built in 1952 by the Hydro-Electric Power Commission of Ontario using steel from Dominion Bridge Company, this structure originated from World War II military designs.

The bridge stands as the last remaining Bailey Bridge in Old Toronto and maintains its place in the City of Toronto Inventory of Heritage Properties.

The steel construction provides a secure path for pedestrians crossing Lake Shore Boulevard, particularly during events at Exhibition Place and waterfront activities.

The structure incorporates military engineering principles from World War II Bailey bridges, which were designed for rapid assembly in combat situations.
