The Golden Ears Bridge in British Colombia, Canada, spans the Fraser River and connects Langley with Pitt Meadows, as well as Maple Ridge.

The Golden Ears Bridge is the longest 'extradosed' bridge in North America, with a length of 2,400 m (including access roads). The bridge consists of three main spans, each measuring 244 m, and two shorter spans of 122 m. It has six lanes and additionally pedestrian and bicycle ways.

The bridge is named after the Golden Ears peaks of Mount Blanshard in Golden Ears Provincial Park. The name was chosen in a community process.

HeidelbergCement‘s subsidiary Lehigh Hanson delivered over 150,000 m3 concrete to this project.
