The Waaban Crossing (known as the Third Crossing bridge during development) is a 1.2-kilometre (0.75 mi) crossing of the Rideau Canal on the Cataraqui River in Kingston, Ontario, linking John Counter Boulevard on the western side of the river with Gore Road on the eastern side.
The bridge opened in December 2022, at a cost of $180 million funded by equal contributions from the city, provincial, and federal governments. The bridge has one vehicle lane in each direction for road traffic, and a multimodal lane for pedestrians and cyclists.
