Stu Hart Memorial Bridge Opens On Highway 8, West Of Calgary

Stu Hart is being honored in Canada.

The Stu Hart Memorial Bridge opened on Highway 8, West of Calgary on Tuesday, November 10.

Bret Hart and several family members attended the ceremony.

“It’s a special day for all of us. We all love the fact that they named a bridge after my dad. Because that’s what he stood for — he stood for being strong. I think he would be truly honoured and it would mean a lot to him,” said Bret.

“Naming this bridge after Stu recognizes the incredible legacy he and his family built right here in Calgary, and this bridge will serve as a lasting tribute to a family that has helped put Calgary on the map,” said Devin Dreeshen, Alberta’s minister of transportation and economic corridors

Stu trained Bret Hart, Owen Hart, Dynamite Kid, Jim Neidhart, and many more in the famous Hart Dungeon.
