Connecting the cities of New Westminster and Surrey in British Columbia, the Skybridge crosses the Fraser River and is the longest cable-supported transit-only bridge in the world. It is part of the Expo Line of the SkyTrain system in Metro Vancouver. The bridge towers are 404 feet (123 meters) tall and the trains travel 150 feet (45 meters) above the water. It was built between 1987 and 1989, and runs nearly parallel to neighboring Pattullo Bridge.
