The Knight Street Bridge is a crossing over the north arm of the Fraser River, the Canadian National Railway (CNR) line, and several roads, in Metro Vancouver.

The upgrade delayed for decades, Knight St. was never a streetcar route, and experienced less commercial and lower intensity development than nearby arterials.

[1] A late 1950s metropolitan highway planning committee recommendation included a proposed 1970s crossing in the vicinity, to relieve the Oak Street Bridge.

The impact caused the boom to bend and the crane to slide off the barge and sink, and the bridge was closed to traffic for about 48 hours.

To densify the ground, 105 injection boreholes were drilled to a depth of 12.3 metres (40 ft) around one abutment, and filled at pressure with a low mobility grout up to the surface.

[18] During early 2020, the bridge underwent extensive rehabilitation that required overnight single lane closures in each direction.

The work included lighting upgrades, pier repairs, and the replacement of crash cushions, signage, and bearing and expansion joints.

[19] If land use had been determined by market forces alone, development along the Knight St. extension south of the bridge would have created the largest industrial park in region.
