Talk:Walterdale Bridge

Latest comment: 5 years ago by Vanstrat in topic Merger proposal

This stub needs work. I have included the City of Edmonton's link to the project history of the bridge construction, but I would like to work on developing more content, esp. as the bridge is being rebuilt.

Photo Gallery edit

I added a photo gallery feature and two photos. A few more of the construction or interesting ones of the old + some history would greatly improve this article. Any photos of the main construction camps? Cheers, Kmw2700 (talk) 05:35, 8 September 2016 (UTC)Reply

Merger proposal edit

I propose that New Walterdale Bridge be merged into Walterdale Bridge. The articles are both fairly short and in reviewing the Port Mann Bridge article, both the old a new bridges are mentioned. As part of the merger the old and new bridges could be differentiated by their opening year (2012 and 2017 respectively). -- MuzikMachine (talk) 16:06, 20 April 2018 (UTC)Reply

Support: @MuzikMachine: Agreed, the new bridge article is extremely small and there's no reason that material can't be included here as well. Nobody calls the newer bridge the "New Walterdale Bridge", so anyone looking for information on the new one would likely end up at the "Walterdale Bridge" article anyway; Therefore WP:COMMONNAME also would support this. - Vanstrat ((🗼)) 03:25, 6 December 2018 (UTC)Reply
Did the merge. Most of the information on the previous article was a duplicate of what was on here as it was. The only things that were different were the infobox and one sentence at the beginning. - Vanstrat ((🗼)) 05:43, 6 December 2018 (UTC)Reply
