Summary[edit]
| Description |
McNeil Beach Lighthouse and Seal Island Bridge. The Seal Island Bridge is located in Victoria County, Nova Scotia. It is an arch truss design and crosses the Great Bras d'Or channel of Bras d'Or Lake. With the third longest bridge span in the province, the Seal Island Bridge opened in 1961 as part of the Trans-Canada Highway project. It consists of eight steel truss spans: a main arch of 152 meters (500 ft), two side spans of 106 meters (350 ft), and five approach spans of 76 meters (250 ft). In 1884 there was a small lantern on a 7.62 meters (25ft) high pole with a small white shed at its base at this location. The pole was replaced in 1909 by the existing tower. In 1961 the Seal Island Bridge was built with the channel being marked with light buoys, rending the lighthouse redundant. Tower Height: 10.1 meters (33ft) Light Height: 9.45 meters (31ft) above water level Scenic Drive: Bras d'Or Lakes |
