The Walterdale Bridge (formerly called the 105 Street Bridge) is a bridge that spans the North Saskatchewan River in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. It was built by the Dominion Bridge Company, and was named after John Walter, an early settler who ran a ferry at this approximate location [1]. The bridge is currently slated for replacement, with an estimated 2013 start time depending upon funding [2]
