The Walterdale Bridge is a suspension bridge across the North Saskatchewan River in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. It replaced the previous Walterdale Bridge in 2017. The new bridge has three lanes for northbound vehicular traffic and improved pedestrian and cyclist crossings.

The previous Walterdale Bridge (formerly called the 105 Street Bridge, renamed in 1967)[2] was a steel grating-decked truss bridge that spanned the North Saskatchewan River in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. It was built in 1913 by the Dominion Bridge Company and was named after John Walter, an early settler who ran a ferry at this approximate location.[3] The neighbourhood Walterdale at this location was also named after John Walter.[4]

Replacement

Construction began on a replacement bridge in early 2013 and was scheduled to be completed in late 2015; however, it did not open (two lanes only) until September 18, 2017. The contractor faced over $10 million in penalties for the delay. The new bridge has three lanes for northbound vehicular traffic and improved pedestrian and cyclist crossings. The old bridge was demolished and removed. Roadway and trail links north and south of the bridge were partially complete {{as of|2017|9|19|lc=y}},[5] and the pedestrian access and third lane opened on September 29, 2017.[6]

The new bridge is located east of the original bridge, and is supported by concrete thrust blocks on the banks of the river, eliminating the need for piers. The arches are {{convert|56|m}} tall.[7]
