Demolition of Old Arlington Bridge | Winnipeg News

Winnipeg’s historic Arlington Bridge, standing since 1912, is finally being demolished after years of safety concerns and closure. More than just infrastructure, it’s a neighborhood landmark tied to generations of daily life. The city’s ambitious bridge renewal plan—aiming to upgrade over 100 bridges—sees this demolition as a pivotal step toward safer, modern connections, with a new bridge projected to cost $150 million. Engineering challenges abound, especially with the active rail yard nearby, but the mayor’s vision is clear: reconnect communities and boost local jobs through this massive, long-term investment.
