About this Park
Alexandra Bridge Park is a small park centred around the site of the original Cariboo Wagon Road bridge over the Fraser River. It provides both a rest stop and picnic facilities for travelers.
This site has been a natural stop-over and crossing of the Fraser River since the area was first populated. Because of its small size there are limited recreational opportunities within this park.
Special notes
- The bridge itself is not in the park. It is maintained by the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure.
