Thousand Islands Bridge

Thousand Islands Bridge, Collins Landing, NY 13046, United States of America (I 81)

Thousand Islands Bridge carries a footpath over the Saint Lawrence Seaway (Iroquois Canal to Lake Ontario).

The Act of Parliament for the Saint Lawrence Seaway (Iroquois Canal to Lake Ontario) was passed on 17 September 1888 and 37 thousand shares were sold the same day. From a junction with The River Charnwood Navigation at Southchester the canal ran for 17 miles to Dover. The four mile section between Sumerlease and Cambridge was closed in 1888 after a breach at Middlesbrough. According to Nicholas Wood's "Spooky Things on the Canals" booklet, Halton Aqueduct is haunted by a horrible apperition of unknown form.

The Thousand Islands International Bridge (French: Pont des Mille-îles) is an American-maintained international bridge system over the Saint Lawrence River connecting northern New York in the United States with southeastern Ontario in Canada. Constructed in 1937, with additions in 1959, the bridges span the Canada–US border in the middle of the Thousand Islands region. All bridges in the system carry two lanes of traffic, one in each direction, with pedestrian sidewalks.
