Low Level Bridge, Railway bridge in Edmonton, Canada
The Low Level Bridge stretches 213 meters across the North Saskatchewan River, featuring a steel truss design with two parallel spans for traffic flow.
Construction of the original bridge span was completed in 1900, marking the first crossing point over the North Saskatchewan River in Edmonton.
The structure represents early Canadian railway engineering, demonstrating the evolution of transportation methods from trains to streetcars and modern vehicles.
The bridge carries over 40,000 vehicles daily between downtown Edmonton and the Cloverdale district, with separate lanes for eastbound and westbound traffic.
During the 1915 flood, officials positioned a train on the bridge to prevent it from overturning when waters reached near deck level.
