The third 18th Street Bridge, called the David Thompson Bridge, was replaced by twin bridges; the first twin bridge opened in 2009, the second twin bridge opened c. 2010.
Custodial History
For custodial history see the collection level description of the Lawrence Stuckey collection.
This bridge was condemned in the late 1930s but cyclists continued to use it until it was torn down (approximately 1940)
Until the early 1920s the Canadian Pacific Railway maintained a well and pumping station near the southeast corner of this bridge, which pumped water through a pipeline to a locomotive watering tank at Kemnay.
