Kinnaird Bridge, Prestressed concrete road bridge in Castlegar, Canada
The Kinnaird Bridge spans the Columbia River with a length of 200 meters, connecting the communities of Ootischenia and Castlegar in British Columbia.
Engineer Riccardo Morandi completed this infrastructure project in 1965, incorporating his expertise in prestressed concrete construction methods for enhanced structural stability.
The bridge stands as an example of mid-20th century engineering innovation, representing a period of rapid infrastructure development in British Columbia.
The structure carries Highway 3 traffic and contains water and sewer utilities installed in 2011 to service the airport lands across the river.
Annual inspections by the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure ensure the bridge maintains its structural integrity through detailed examinations and necessary maintenance.
