Île d'Orléans Bridge

The Ile d'Orleans Bridge known locally as the Pont d'Ile was opened for traffic in 1967. It is a suspension bridge crossing the from the north shore of the Saint Lawrence River, near the Montmorency Falls, to the Île d'Orléans (Isle of Orleans). The first bridge, constructed in 1912, was destroyed by fire in 1921. Until a new suspension bridge was constructed in 1940 access was by ferry. This second bridge was swept away in the flood of 1965 after which the current bridge was built.
