Heritage Sites in the RM of Riverdale


About the project...

The project has documented over 100 sites in Rivers and area that possess heritage characteristics.

For each site we have taken photos and attempted to determine the origins and significance of the site, as well as noting,
for the record, architectural, material and design details.

Each site has been placed on a map and any old photos or other documentation unearthed is included in the file.

In some cases other resources have been identified.

444.M.4. "Rumble Bridge"

Construction Date:  1944

Location: 
 
Origins:

First bridge ca. 1911 – reportedly “unsafe”
1944 – upgraded

Features:

“The concrete footings about 200 yards west of the present bridge on Highway 25 are the footings of the former bridge. That road was the main route to Brandon and all points to the south and east so everyone in the community crossed it often. And to get to Rivers --- and to get to school for me --- we had to cross it every day. (Except in the winter when, with a horse drawn cutter, van or sleigh we crossed on the river ice straight south of Rivers.)  The deck on the bridge was made of heavy wooden planks sitting crossways in a steel frame. But they weren't fastened in any way --- they just sat loose in the frame. So, when a vehicle crossed the bridge the planks "rumbled" quite loudly so the bridge became known as the ‘Rumble Bridge’ or the ‘Thunder Bridge’. “
