This bridge is home to “The Iron Horse,” a public art installation featuring 12 life-sized horse silhouettes designed by Toronto artist Robert Sprachman. These sculptures are on a repurposed 19th-century railway bridge over Yonge Street and represent the shift from horse-drawn transportation to steam locomotives, which were affectionately known as “iron horses.” The silhouettes honour Toronto's industrial history and reflect the evolving nature of urban mobility.

This section of the trail is very popular and can be crowded on summer weekends. If you're cycling, take it slow and be considerate to the many pedestrians strolling along. If you want to experience this trail at a faster pace, consider using it in the colder months of fall or during the week.
