From the Castlegar museum webpage:

Built as a field exercise project in 1984 by the 44th Field Engineer Squadron, the bridge was allowed to remain in place as a connection to the island. The 473 foot bridge won the coveted Canadian Militia Herztberg Award. All materials for the bridge were donated.
