Stunning Photos of Alexandra Bridge Provincial Park

? by Tim Barker Photo

Alexandra Bridge Provincial Park is set along the historic route of the former Cariboo Wagon Road and highway. The current bridge which is now only open to foot traffic, was built in 1926 to replace the original bridge built in 1861 which later was destroyed during the flood of 1894.

“Alexandra Bridge What is eerie about visiting the old bridge is how it takes you across the river and you are met with the forest and the mountain slope. There is no road to anywhere. That is because the construction of the railway basically erased what was there. Over the decades the forest took over.” ? by @nikonglenn

She looks pretty good for being almost a century old, have you met our local gal Alexandra? ? by @tomanynates #TheFraserCanyon

“Just a short drive from Vancouver – BC, Alexandra Bridge is a super cool hidden gem in the Fraser Canyon. The bridge we see today was built in 1926, but it’s not the original structure(constructed in 1863, but destroyed by a flood in 1894). In 1964, Alexandra Bridge was closed for cars but we can still visit the structure which is a super cool spot for pictures.” ? by @diegorebellost

“The new Cariboo Highway Alexandra bridge was built in 1926 to replace the 1863 bridge that was taken out by a flood. This bridge is just a little ways past our site and is certainly worth the visit!” ? by@historicyale
