Скачать или смотреть ABANDONED ALEXANDRA BRIDGE | Gateway to the Cariboo Wagon Road

Located along the mighty Fraser River, Alexandra Bridge served as an important link connecting the Cariboo region to Fort Langley. After World War I, the dawn of the automotive era saw a reinvestment in roads in the province including the re-opening of the Fraser Canyon to road traffic in the form of the new Cariboo Highway . This second Alexandra Suspension Bridge still exists today, though it ceased to be used for automobile traffic in 1964. Today, the old Alexandra Bridge Provincial Park provides a place for visitors to the area to stop and see an important piece of history in the area while also enjoying the incredible views of the Fraser Canyon.
