Historic bridges are known as "heritage bridges" in Ontario. Southern Ontario is a major coverage area for HistoricBridges.org. Ontario has a substantial number of steel truss bridges, but pin connected truss bridges are few in number. Most southern Ontario truss bridges date from the 1910s on. Ontario offers an outstanding collection of movable bridges, concrete bowstring "rainbow" arch bridges, concrete rigid-frame bridges, riveted truss bridges, and an above-average population of pin-connected truss bridges, although that type is rare here as it is in all of Canada.
