Albert Memorial Bridge, Municipal heritage bridge in Regina, Canada
The Albert Memorial Bridge extends 840 feet across Wascana Creek, featuring four lanes for vehicular traffic and ornate Egyptian-style architectural elements throughout its structure.
Constructed during the Great Depression as a relief project in 1930, the bridge was initially dedicated to Saskatchewan soldiers who died during World War I.
The bridge incorporates Egyptian Revival Art Deco design elements, including ceramic glazed papyrus columns, Egyptian needles, and decorative buffalo head ornaments.
The structure underwent a major restoration in 2009, which included deck resurfacing, balustrade repairs, and the replacement of original lighting fixtures with Victorian-style cast iron lights.
This beam bridge spans 256 meters over Wascana Creek, which measures only one meter in width, making it the longest bridge over the shortest water span worldwide.
