The closed portion of the former North Battleford Bridge.
Looking down the former Hwy 16 towards the closed portion of the bridge. It is still accessible to pedestrians.
Wow, that must have been an ugly crossing in it's time. Hwy 16 is also known as the northern Trans Canada Highway and has a lot of traffic. I don't think there would be a lot of room to pass on coming traffic.

The warning sign posted a mile back from the bridge, most maps show this bridge as still open so I assume it was closed recently.
The former Battleford bridge consists of two sections as it used an island to shorten the length of the bridges. You can still drive accross the one to access the island.

Time is taking it's toll on this bridge.
