Description
Bridge of Triangles at Matsqui. Massive concrete triangles march across the Fraser River from Matsqui shore in Abbotsford, bottom, to the City of Mission, beyond the Fraser. The river has flooded the Matsqui Prairie and parts of Mission multiple times. At the foot of the bridge pier that carries BC Hwy 11 on the Abbotsford shore, a dyke crest gauge records the most recent flood crests at this site: 1894 (7.92 m), 1948 (7.61 m), 1972 (7.12 m), and 1999 (6.3 m).
