About

Amisk Wâciw Âsokan (ahmsk-wahCEE Ah-sho-kuhn), also known as the Beaver Hills Bridge, is a pedestrian bridge spanning the North Saskatchewan River between Edmonton and Strathcona County, Alberta. Construction started in June 2023. It was opened to the public in August 2025. An official grand opening and a revealing of the name is expected in September 2025. Gathering areas at both ends of the bridge, multi-use pathways connecting to existing trails and a public washroom will be added later. Cost of the project is $41.4 million, which was split between the River Valley Alliance, the City of Edmonton, and Strathcona County.
