Point Ellice Bridge

The Point Ellice Bridge, also known as the Bay Street Bridge because it carries traffic from Bay Street, is a water crossing in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada. It spans the Upper Harbour and connects Victoria and Victoria West.[1]

It was the site of the Point Ellice Bridge disaster in 1896. The current structure was built in 1956–57 and was subject to major upgrades in 2001–02 and 2019.[2]
