About this Event
Project Profile:
This Edmonton - Strathcona Footbridge will link Edmonton to Strathcona County and connect to the trail systems within the North Saskatchewan River Valley.
The new footbridge over the North Saskatchewan River will include shared pathway connections and supporting open space/recreational upgrades on both sides of the river.
The design includes:
- A gathering area at each end of the footbridge.
- Shared pathways from the bridge to the existing trail system.
- Two viewing lookout areas. The canopies that were shown in the preliminary design are no longer included in the bridge to keep the project within budget.
