The first of four decorative bridges to connect the new Toronto Port Lands development has left the Cherubini Metal Works in Dartmouth. The bridge is being delivered on a barge that will make its way into the St. Lawrence River. Barge passage is a slow process but the bridge will arrive sometime next month. The first span will cross the mainland jump at what is known as Cherry Street North. Together, the bridges will connect the new, “Villiers Island,” to Toronto, and the revitalized Port Lands.

Hey @DarrenFisherNS! We are excited to watch as this bridge built in your community makes its way to Toronto’s Port Lands. Jobs in both of our communities and flood protection for Toronto as part of this amazing infrastructure project. #BridgeWatch @cathmckenna #PortLands https://t.co/VSp2iGEgSX

This is the route that the new bridge headed to the Port Lands will take along the St. Lawrence Seaway from Dartmouth to Toronto. We’ll post its progress regularly using #BridgeWatchTO pic.twitter.com/qRoLdW2020

.@smckinley1’s excellent on-the-ground look at the bridge in Dartmouth & it’s future is a great companion piece, ICYMI, to my August look at the lush new river valley and island starting to emerge from bleak industrial land on Toronto’s east waterfront https://t.co/KWxKPK7Nwa
