The survey disk will be found on the National Capital Commission's Ottawa River Parkway bridge over the tracks which lead to the ex-Canadian Pacific Railway's Prince of Wales Bridge. The disk is near the west end of the north side of the bridge for the west-bound traffic. There is no parking near this waymark but the paved bike path (Rideau Trail & Trans Canada Trail) is close by.

I have not yet found a listing for the many survey disks used by the NCC. Recent surveyors marked the guardrail making it easy to find this disk.
