Gordie Howe Bridge — Attraction in Saskatoon

If I could give this bridge zero stars, I would... NOT! Now, THIS is what I call a bridge! Not only is it just your run-of-the-mill, standard, boring bridge, it's a COOOOOOOL bridge! Are you tired of walking every day? You want to burn calories, but walking is just so bland and unimpressive. Long gone are the days of joggin' witchya walkman, or even streaming on your ipod, and it's not like you can just make your toque play samples from Spotify. The same boring scenery, blah, blah, blah... If these are your bridge-related complaints, well, we've got the product for you: The Gordie Howe Bridge in picturesque Saskatoon, Saskatchewan! Not only does it display interesting works of art from some of the city's greatest creators, but it also has its own sound system, the eerily deja-vu whooooooshes and whiiiiiiirrrrs of the traffic! Equipped with state-of-the-art SmoothPath and new anti-flickering light technology, the Gordie Howe Bridge is perfect for any leisurely activities, whether it be walking, jogging, cycling, skateboarding, or anything else you can possibly imagine. A picturesque landmark in the Paris of the Canadian prairies, the Gordie Howe Bridge is a "must" on every Sasky's to-do list.

Fr though, this is a pretty cool bridge to walk on. It's veeeeeeery long and smooth and flat, well maintained as well. Come take pictures of the bridge when...

The Gordie Howe bridge is a nice bridge to cross for pedestrian traffic and cyclists. It is not the widest but their is enough space for single file traffic when people are crossing at the same time in opposite directions at the same time. It is also the least trafficked bridge by pedestrians do to it being the furthest south bridge in Saskatoon , but it makes it a peaceful and quiet spot even though there is a little bit of traffic noise above. On one side of the bridge it connects to the south east trail link of the Meewasin Trail and a trail that takes you behind HolidayPark golf course and not too far from Gordie Howe Bowl. On the other side of the bridges it connects to Gabriel Dumont Park and Diefenbaker Park. This is a great place to come walk , bike or more. I have crossed the bridge many times...

They finally connected the bridge and I haven't been following it from the start. I am an ironworker myself but I wasn't lucky enough to get on this job but it is super amazing to see the progress and just go near it and see the scale and how huge it is. I highly recommend it and you can get super close to the bridge now also!
