Bank Street Bridge, Road bridge over Rideau Canal in Ottawa, Canada
The Bank Street Bridge connects the neighborhoods of Glebe and Old Ottawa South while spanning over Queen Elizabeth Driveway and Colonel By Drive.
The original wooden structure from 1866 was replaced by a steel swing bridge, leading to the construction of the current elevated bridge in 1912.
The bridge stands as a connection point between different Ottawa communities, linking residential areas, commercial districts, and recreational spaces along the Rideau Canal.
The bridge underwent major restoration works in 1993 following structural concerns that led to a truck ban in 1981.
Located at coordinates 45.3962°N and 75.6847°W, the bridge features a commemorative plaque at its northwestern end detailing its significance.
