Princess Margaret Bridge, Truss bridge in Fredericton, Canada
The Princess Margaret Bridge spans 1097 meters across the Saint John River, connecting the northern and southern parts of Fredericton through its steel structure.
The bridge opened in 1959 as part of the Route 2 Trans-Canada Highway bypass project, receiving its name from Princess Margaret, sister of Queen Elizabeth II.
The bridge forms an essential part of New Brunswick's transportation heritage, connecting communities across the Saint John River for multiple generations of residents.
Regular maintenance work occurs on the bridge, including an extensive repair project in 2010 that invested 80 million dollars to extend its operational lifespan.
The structure transitions from a four-lane divided freeway to a two-lane road with steep grades, creating specific driving conditions for vehicles crossing the span.
