Notes
Originally intended only for rail traffic it was modified to carry road traffic which lasted until a separate road bridge was built in 1968. It is still in use as a railway bridge, being a vital link in a line running to Hay River on the south shore of Great Slave Lake in the Northwest Territories.
The structure from east to west consists of 9 spans; 1 deck plate girder, 3 deck trusses, 1 through truss (for navigation clearance when built), 3 deck trusses and 1 deck plate girder.
