An Entity of Type: infrastructure, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

The Red Bridge is a road bridge that spans the South Thompson River in Kamloops, British Columbia. The 400-metre long (1,300 ft) bridge carries two narrow road lanes of Mt. Paul Way between Lorne Street on the south bank of the river to the Mt. Paul industrial area on the north side. Mt. Paul Way then continues for 1.3 km (0.81 mi) through the industrial park to intersect with Highway 5. The Red Bridge is of the Howe truss design, and is one of the only remaining functioning bridges of this type in British Columbia.

  • The Red Bridge is a road bridge that spans the South Thompson River in Kamloops, British Columbia. The 400-metre long (1,300 ft) bridge carries two narrow road lanes of Mt. Paul Way between Lorne Street on the south bank of the river to the Mt. Paul industrial area on the north side. Mt. Paul Way then continues for 1.3 km (0.81 mi) through the industrial park to intersect with Highway 5. The Red Bridge is of the Howe truss design, and is one of the only remaining functioning bridges of this type in British Columbia. The bridge got its name from the red-coloured paint applied to the bridge's piers and, more prominently, pedestrian handrails. This legacy stretches back to the first and second bridges, meaning the name was already well-established by the time the current bridge was built. The wood surrounding the piers has not been repainted in many years, so the colour is barely visible, but a recent repainting along the edges of the bridge deck and the pedestrian handrails displays the namesake colour well.
