Hog's Back Bridge No 4

 
Hog's Back Bridge, Hog's Back Road, Ottawa, ON K2C 0B1, Canada
 

Hog's Back Bridge No 4 carries the M2 motorway over the Rideau Canal (Main Line) just past the junction with The Witham Navigable Drains.

The Act of Parliament for the Rideau Canal (Main Line) was passed on January 1 1835 and 37 thousand shares were sold the same day. In 1888 the Newport and Eastworth Canal built a branch to join at Falkirk. Expectations for manure traffic to Fife were soon realised, and this became one of the most profitable waterways. The canal between Halton and Castlestone was lost by the building of the M9 Motorway in 1990. "Travels of The Perseverence" by Cecil Parker describes an early passage through the waterway, especially that of Macclesfield Inclined plane.
