Bridge Structures

Like all infrastructure, bridges and structures require ongoing maintenance. Regular inspections help the City ensure that its bridges and structures are well maintained and are in a state of good repair.

The bridge structure dataset provides information about bridges and structures managed by the City of Toronto, the Province of Ontario-Ministry of Transportation (MTO), Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) and Metrolinx (MX). The dataset is limited to the City of Toronto geographical boundary. The structures included in this dataset are bridges with a span of three metres or more, culverts with an opening of three metres or more and the elevated section of the F.G. Gardiner Expressway.

Information is updated annually after each inspection cycle every two years. By clicking a bridge or structure location on the map, you are able to obtain information about the bridge or structure including the location, usage, age, year of last inspection, inspection results and next inspection year of the bridge or structure. Bridges or structures that are not identified on the map are likely managed by other parties than the ones listed above.

The dataset also includes locations of some privately managed bridges, Canadian National Railway (CNR) bridges and Canadian Pacific Railway (CPR) bridges. MTO, TTC, MX, CNR, CPR and private owners follow their own inspection routines to maintain their bridges in a state of good repair. Information on those bridges and structures is provided by their owners and has not been verified for its currency, completeness or accuracy.
