*** About Victoria Bridge: Originally opened in 1859, the Victoria Bridge in Montreal was the first bridge to span the St. Lawrence River. It was a crucial development for Canada’s rail system and marked a significant technological achievement of its time. Remarkably, it was the longest bridge in the world at the time of its completion. This historical marvel was named in honor of Queen Victoria and has since undergone several modifications to accommodate modern traffic demands while retaining its impressive historical essence. The bridge's enduring structure and continuous service over the dynamic waters of the St. Lawrence are a testament to the ingenuity of its original engineers and the ongoing efforts to preserve this critical piece of Canadian infrastructure.
