Simon Fraser Bridge
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Simon Fraser Bridge is a deck truss bridge on Highway 97, spanning the Fraser River in Prince George, British Columbia. The two-lane bridge is approximately 400 metres in length, and was completed in 1963. It carries approximately 22,000 vehicles per day [1]. Presently, a $50 million dollar project twinning the bridge to bring capacity to four lanes is underway [2]
The bridge was named to honour the fur-trader and explorer Simon Fraser, who established Prince George, and who descended the river from near this spot in 1805.
