The
Burrard Bridge (sometimes referred to as the
Burrard Street Bridge) is a five-lane,
Art Deco style, steel
truss bridge constructed in 1930-1932 in
Vancouver,
British Columbia,
Canada. The high, five part bridge on four piers spans
False Creek, connecting
downtown Vancouver with
Kitsilano via connections to
Burrard Street on both ends. It is one of three bridges crossing False Creek. The other two bridges are the
Granville Bridge, three blocks or to the southeast, and the
Cambie Street Bridge, about 11 blocks or to the east. In addition to the vehicle deck, the Burrard Bridge has sidewalks on both sides, wide, the northern one (with a view of
English Bay and
West Vancouver) for pedestrians and the southern one (with a view of False Creek) now dedicated to cyclists.
