Angus L. Macdonald Bridge, Suspension bridge in Halifax, Canada
The Angus L. Macdonald Bridge stretches 1.3 kilometers across Halifax Harbour, connecting Halifax Peninsula to Dartmouth with its steel towers and cables.
The bridge, completed in 1955 at a cost of 11.5 million dollars, stands as the second longest suspension bridge in Canada at its time of construction.
The structure bears the name of Nova Scotia Premier Angus L. Macdonald, who championed its construction but passed away before its completion in 1954.
The bridge maintains three traffic lanes with a reversible center lane, along with dedicated paths for pedestrians and cyclists crossing Halifax Harbour.
During the 2015-2017 Big Lift project, workers replaced the entire bridge deck while keeping the structure open for daytime traffic.
