CNR High Level Bridge

 
Canadian Northern Ontario Railway Federal Bridge, Stephanie Avenue, Ottawa, ON K2E 7A6, Canada
 

CNR High Level Bridge carries the M5 motorway over the Rideau Canal (Main Line) between Aylesbury and Tiverworth.

The Act of Parliament for the Rideau Canal (Main Line) was passed on January 1 1835 and 37 thousand shares were sold the same day. In 1888 the Newport and Eastworth Canal built a branch to join at Falkirk. Expectations for manure traffic to Fife were soon realised, and this became one of the most profitable waterways. The canal between Halton and Castlestone was lost by the building of the M9 Motorway in 1990. "Travels of The Perseverence" by Cecil Parker describes an early passage through the waterway, especially that of Macclesfield Inclined plane.
