Circle Drive Bridge, Steel girder bridge in Saskatoon, Canada.
Circle Drive Bridge is a highway bridge spanning the South Saskatchewan River in Saskatoon with a steel and concrete structure. The crossing has four spans supported by three concrete piers positioned in the water.
The bridge was completed in 1983 to handle increasing traffic in Saskatoon during that period. In the early 2000s a third lane was added in both directions to expand its capacity.
Local residents commonly referred to it as the 42nd Street Bridge during the planning and construction phases through media coverage in the 1960s.
The bridge is open daily and handles heavy traffic during rush hours for commuters traveling across the city. Drivers should exercise caution during winter weather and monitor road conditions.
Following an incident where a vehicle went off the bridge in 2013, the city implemented new snow removal procedures for all bridges.
