Bridge 11
Bridge 11 (also known as the Allanburg Bridge) is a vertical lift bridge over the Welland Canal within the City of Thorold and community of Allanburg. The location was used for the groundbreaking ceremony for the canal. Constructed around 1930 and completed early 1931. The bridge carries Hwy 20 connecting Niagara Falls to Fonthill. The bridge has a main span. It was designed by Harrington, Howard & Ash, the predecessor of HNTB. It was rehabilitated in 2001 and is a through-truss vertical-lift bridge with clearance for shipping. On August 11, 2001, the bridge was struck by the MS Windoc (1959) when the lift span was lowered before the ship cleared the structure. The ship caught fire. After minor repairs to the bridge, it reopened to vehicular traffic on November 16, 2001.〔("Marine Investigation Report #M01C0054: Striking and Subsequent Fire on Board Bridge 11, Welland Canal and Bulk Carrier Windoc, Welland Canal, Allanburg, Ontario, 11 August 2001." ) Transportation Safety Board of Canada, 2005-07-05.〕 ==References==
