Although I generally think places are notable, I can't see how this bridge is. Woogee (talk) 03:51, 18 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- This fails WP:CRYSTAL, WP:V, WP:RS, WP:N, and the list goes on... As such, WP:DELETE. (Sorry for getting carried away with policy links) Hamtechperson 03:58, 18 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete per nominator. In addition to sounding inherently nonnotable, there are no reliable sources to verify notability. The one source that is linked suggests that the author may be trying to use Wikipedia to get support for the proposal to build the bridge. --Nick—Contact/Contribs 04:00, 18 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete per WP:CRYSTAL. There is only one news article in Google News describing its proposal. Dew Kane (talk) 04:18, 18 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Just because it's proposed can't save it from the wrath of WP:Deletion policy. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 05:30, 18 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete This article is a single line about a bridge that may not even be made. Fails Notability, partly Crystal and possibly more guidelines. --Andromedabluesphere440 (talk) 13:55, 18 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete. Planned or proposed infrastructure only has notability if it has received significant coverage. One article does not make significant coverage unless it is something on the order of a NY Times cover story. - ¢Spender1983 (talk) 02:24, 19 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete -- I wondered about redirect to Rideau Canal, but that article does not list bridges, let alone WP:CRYSTAL-ball bridges. Peterkingiron (talk) 19:49, 20 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
