Canadian bridge from Prince Edward Island to the mainland

Confederation Bridge

The Confederation Bridge (French: Pont de la Confédération) is a box girder bridge carrying the Trans-Canada Highway across the Abegweit Passage of the Northumberland Strait, linking the province of Prince Edward Island with the mainland province of New Brunswick. Opened on May 31, 1997, the 12.9-kilometre (42,000 ft; 8.0 mi) bridge is Canada's longest bridge and the world's longest bridge over ice-covered water. The bridge was designed by French engineer Jean M. Muller who was a specialist of multiple span match-casting bridges.
