The bridge crossed the railroad tracks to a short section of roadway to the Dundas/Dupont/Annette intersection. After the bridge was closed the you could walk over it and look down though the cracks the connection points of the level bridge roadway and the ramps on either side. Down under the north ramp, accessible from Monarch Rd, you could park under the remaining ramp for decades.
