It spans the length of four football fields.  It is a masterful feat of mountain engineering and beautiful to behold.  It cost $130 million.  It is a new four-lane bridge that replaces a deadly stretch of the Alberta-BC Trans-Canada Highway travelled by two million travellers every year.

Over time, i think it's a small price to pay compared to the constant cleanup, rescue and recovery efforts from all those crashes, never mind the human cost.
