Public Advisory: Crabbe’s River Bridge Along T’Railway Re-opened

The Department of Environment and Conservation wishes to advise the public that the new Crabbe’s River bridge, located in the T’Railway Provincial Park near the Town of St. Fintan’s, Western Newfoundland, is now open to all pedestrian and off-road vehicles, including ATVs and snowmobiles.

The original Crabbe’s River bridge was severely damaged by ice in 2008 and subsequently removed. Crabbe’s River is the fifth largest bridge in the T’Railway Provincial Park. The park spans approximately 880 kilometres across the island portion of the province.
