Tawatinâ Bridge


The Tawatinâ Bridge is an extradosed LRT bridge crossing the North Saskatchewan River in Edmonton, Alberta. Below the concrete box girder spans is a suspended eight-metre-wide shared-use path, which was opened to the public on December 12, 2021. It is part of Edmonton Transit Service's Valley Line extension, which opened on November 4, 2023. The Tawatinâ Bridge consists of two railway tracks.
Tawatinâ means "valley" in Cree. The bridge features about 550 pieces of art by Métis artist David Garneau, Indigenous artists, and Regina artist Madhu Kumar with other non-indigenous artists. These are fixed to the underside of the box girder and visible from the multi-user pathway.
