Gabriel Bridge
{{Short description|Bridge in Saskatchewan, Canada}}
Gabriel Bridge (between Wakaw and Rosthern in Saskatchewan, Canada) is a steel truss bridge named after Gabriel Dumont. Gabriel Bridge replaced the Gabriel Ferry Crossing in 1989.
Gabriel Dumont operated a ferry on the South Saskatchewan River (in the same area as the bridge) from the early 1870s to 1883. According to Dumont's 1878 licence, the ferry was a scow measuring 7.6m (23 feet) by 4m (12 feet). Ferry service continued near Gabriel's crossing until the completion of Gabriel's Bridge on Highway 312 in 1969.{{Cite web|url=http://www.waymarking.com/waymarks/WMKZFH_Gabriels_Crossing|title=Gabriel's Crossing|last=|first=|date=|website=www.waymarking.com|archive-url=|archive-date=|access-date=}}
