Not a river-crossing bridge near the Falls, but instead a smaller bridge over a railway in the city, between Niagara Falls and Niagara-on-the-Lake (Ontario, Canada). This demolition is part of the replacement of the existing Mewburn Road/Canadian National Railway bridge crossing Canadian National Railway tracks. Existing bridge has been closed for a number of years due to safety concerns with the load capacity. Canadian National Railway Company paid $1.5 million for their share of the project. Niagara-on-the-Lake as well as the Regional Municipality of Niagara contributed funds to assist the City of Niagara Falls with the project. A non-explosive demolition was required, because the train traffic on the railway below had to continue uninterrupted. The new bridge has been installed, but is not shown in this vid.
