Pont de la Concorde (Montreal)
The Concordia Bridge (Pont de la Concorde) carries Avenue Pierre-Dupuy across the St. Lawrence River between Cité du Havre, Montreal, and Parc Jean-Drapeau on Saint Helen's Island. A majority of its traffic is motorists driving to the Montreal Casino on Île Notre-Dame, continuing on Pierre Dupuy Avenue across Pont des Îles. This bridge was built for Expo 67 and was used by the Montreal Expo Express train.[1]
