The Woodward Training Wall was originally constructed
between 1922 and 1928. A major extension was added
in the mid 1930’s, and significant repairs to the structure
occurred in the late 1930’s and early 1950’s. The wall is
just over 3.7 kilometres long. Its purpose is to stabilize
the south bank of the Fraser River by preventing migration
of the navigational channel.
