Burgoyne Bridge, Road bridge in St. Catharines, Canada
Burgoyne Bridge is a road bridge with a steel arch design that spans Twelve Mile Creek and connects important traffic routes in the region. The structure was comprehensively rebuilt in 2016, replacing an earlier wooden construction from the early 1900s.
An original bridge was built in 1915 at this location over Twelve Mile Creek. After a century of carrying traffic, the structure was completely rebuilt in 2016 with a modern steel design.
The bridge stands as a symbol of community unity, where residents initiated support measures and displayed messages of hope for individuals in distress.
The crossing allows both vehicles and pedestrians to safely pass over the creek. Regular upkeep keeps the bridge in good working condition for daily use.
Safety netting made of stainless steel was installed in 2020 to address community concerns. This addition shows how modern infrastructure can respond to local needs.
