Reviews of Fredericton Railway Bridge (Tourist Attraction)

Gavin Reid

Old Railroad bridge turned walkway. What more is there to say? Well, Picarrons Round House is literally at the end; when coming from the South side. And when coming from the Northside, the Beaver Brook Art gallery is around the corner! What more could you ask for?

Mylène Ouellet

We love walking on the bridge. Nice place to be in the summer. Also a very convenient way to get downtown if you are coming from the North side of the city. I always recommend friends or visitor to check it out. The bridge is very packed during summer evenings. Watch for the cyclists as some of them go faster then the speed limit displayed. And keep to your right.

Bernie Connors

A real gem in Downtown Fredericton. It's about to get a major refit in Fall 2019. The Bill Thorpe foot bridge just reopened today, Feb 1, 2020.

I'm here twice a week when it's open in summer spring and fall.I"d add piçtures but there's no option.Should be isolated today so I'll take a look.

Iconic Fredericton landmark. Part of a beautiful walking trail.

Big Daddy 2

Always enjoy a good walk on bridge but think they should really invest in paving it

Brett Collins

Quick walk overlooking the Wolastoq. Depending on the time of day it can be real nice.

Andrew N. Byrne

Quite a long bridge, that offers up stunning views of the Saint John River. It's also been newly renovated so it's even better than before. By far the best way to get to the North Side if you don't have a car.

Frank W. McLaughlin

Great place to walk, nice view.

David Milley

A classic

Maddi Slaney

Beautiful walking bridge with lots of friendly faces!

Chesley Oakley

I wanted to wear a mask to beat The Cove but the freezing rain was so much that it froze to my face and I had to have it surgically removed.

Shauneen McBride

Always groomed for traffic, the most beautiful (and quick) way to bike from Marysville to downtown Fredericton.

Mike Law

It's a bridge, what more could you ask for?

JAG

Sucks

Al

Great place to cross over as a short cut. Used to be an old track railway, no out of service

Angel MacEachern

NB day...listened to a eclectic band smashed with various instruments called Land of Lions while munching on some delicious ice cream, next to the water.

scott strong

Ahmed El-Said

Rebecca&Jason Phillips

Beautiful view..

Dana Mundell

Nice bridge

Christina Z.

Lovely bridge for pedestrians! Great views of the St. John River and downtown Fredericton. It connects the busier part of Fredericton with the laid-back side...the slower pace side is across the river. Picaroon's restaurant is the first place you see once you cross the bridge - it's like a pleasant reward for crossing the bridge.

Emma S.

Walking this bridge is just lovely, it offers a beautiful view of both sides of the river as well as it's own rustic charm making for an all around great walking trip. It's only about a km long so it's fairly easy to walk and connects to more great walking trails.

Graeme MacDermid

Great rail-to-trail path across the Saint John River.

Daniel Paull

It's hard to imagine this walking bridge is over 100 years old. Though the trains may be long gone, the constant pitter patter of human and dog feet and the clickety clack of bicycle wheels give this old girl constant attention. The views across the river are beautiful. You won't be disappointed.

Chris Wintersgill

One of our favourite walking trails in the city.

Brendan Stack

A great weekend to enjoy walking across this long pedestrian bridge and see the river at flood levels . It will be closed later in the summer for repairs.

Tanner Riche-Coburn

Great view of the river. Always in use. Very neat.

Stephen Marr

Bill Thorpe Walking Bridge is CLOSED for resurfacing, 18 Sep 2019 - end Jan 2020

Shelley Nickerson

Great walking bridge that connects the North side of the city to the South side. Part of the regular trail system.

Joel Landry

Probably the most iconic scenery in all of Fredericton. The walking bridge has some nice views of the river and connects the downtown area to Fredericton's North side. On both sides of the bridge you have great spots for beer, food, or a nice patio. On the Northside you have Picaroons and a great little park, and on the south side you have the downtown area with all of its breweries and restaurants. The bridge is also well connected to all of Fredericton's walking trails so you can get to it on foot from pretty much anywhere in the city.

Claudio Ignacio Fernández Espinosa

Perfect place for walk and bike a trail.

Marina Tirado

Amazing walk through the Bridge with friends

Ben Bates

My first time in Fredericton; this is a lovely place! So many bridges. I am staying the night at the University and walked across a river to a microbrewery named Picaroon's. They have food, beer, and a lodge-ey feeling.

The greatest asset to Fredericton's walking trail system.

This Bridge is part the lovely shoreline walk on the Trans Canada Trail in Fredricton NB It is a lovely and well lit walk day or night. The bridge is about 500 metres across and you get great views of Fredricton at night. The photo is taken from the middle of the bridge. This is a great place for an after dinner walk! This bridge was renamed the “Bill Thorpe Memorial Bridge in the last year. Thank you Fredricton this is a beautiful park that highlights some of the great things in Fredricton. Thanks
