Dollarton Bridge

Last updated

The Dollarton Bridge comprises a pair of two-lane reinforced concrete spans the Seymour River in North Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. It was built in 2005, and replaced a two-lane steel truss bridge built in 1948. [1] To avoid a total shutdown of the Dollarton Highway, half of the new bridge was built and opened to traffic before the old bridge was demolished, and then the remaining half of the new bridge was finished.
