Senator Sid Buckwold Bridge, Road bridge in Saskatoon, Canada.
The Senator Sid Buckwold Bridge spans 183 meters across the South Saskatchewan River at the narrowest point within Saskatoon, supporting six traffic lanes.
Originally named Idylwyld Freeway Bridge upon its 1966 opening, the structure received its current name in 2001 to honor former Saskatoon mayor Sidney Buckwold.
The bridge represents a significant period of urban development in Saskatoon when mayor Buckwold initiated projects to modernize the city infrastructure.
The bridge underwent a comprehensive $20 million rehabilitation in 2020, which included deck resurfacing, walkway widening, and drainage system improvements.
During maintenance work in 2019, workers discovered 350 tons of pigeon droppings accumulated over decades, requiring specialized cleaning and prevention measures.
