Built sometime in the dark and distant past as a pedestrian bridge, it became redundant when the railroad bridge just downstream was turned into the trailhead of a new walking trail. Now it carries a pipe within a wooden box across the river. The bridge, located adjacent to the Nicola Highway just west of Juniper Drive, is about 20 metres in length.
Parking is available right across the street.
