Woodroffe Avenue Pedestrian Bridge

  • Country Canada
  • City Ottawa
  • Customer Genivar (WSP)
  • Surface area 66 metres long
  • Year 2011

The Woodroffe Pedestrian Bridge provides safe crossing of Woodroffe Avenue for Algonquin College students, visitors to Centrepointe and users of the Baseline Transit Station.

The 66 m long bridge is clad with laminated glass on both sides and links the existing Algonquin B Building with the Algonquin Centre for Construction Excellence (ACCE) and transit station. 

The bridge design was based on the existing Pedestrian Bridges at the college campus and needed to connect to the corridor system, which links the college buildings.
