Bridge 路 Canada

How much did Knight Street Bridge cost to build?

The Knight Street Bridge is the pair of cast-in-place segmental cantilever concrete bridges, 1,436 m in combined length with a main span of 109.7 m, that carry Knight Street between Vancouver and Richmond, British Columbia, over the Fraser River, built from 1969 to 1974 and opened to traffic on 15 January 1974, now owned by TransLink. The structural article of Don Singer and Wikipedia both give the cost as about 15 million Canadian dollars, which the province funded and which included 3 million for roadways.
