James MacDonald Bridge, Steel bridge in Edmonton, Canada
The James MacDonald Bridge extends across the North Saskatchewan River, connecting the communities of Cloverdale and Rossdale in Edmonton.
The bridge construction began in the early 1960s and reached completion in October 1971, named after Edmonton city engineer James Dugald Alexander MacDonald.
The bridge structure forms part of Edmonton's transportation network, reflecting the city's commitment to connecting communities across the North Saskatchewan River.
The bridge accommodates five westbound collector lanes and handles an average of 50,095 vehicles daily, serving as a primary route for Edmonton commuters.
Engineers designed the bridge as part of an unrealized downtown freeway loop, which would have included three additional spans and a three-level cloverstack interchange.
