Leverett Circle Connector Bridge, Road bridge in Boston, United States
The Leverett Circle Connector Bridge is a road bridge in Boston, Massachusetts that spans the Charles River to link Interstate 93 with Storrow Drive. The structure carries traffic in both directions and serves as a key passage through the city's major roadways.
The bridge was constructed as part of the major Central Artery Project that reshaped Boston's highways in the late 1990s. Its completion represented an important step in modernizing the city's transportation network.
The structure received recognition from the National Steel Bridge Alliance in 2001 for its engineering excellence and contribution to urban transportation.
The bridge carries heavy traffic during rush hours, especially as vehicles move between Interstate 93 and Storrow Drive. Drivers should expect congestion and try to cross during off-peak times if possible.
The bridge uses a specialized steel box girder design that is uncommon in American bridge construction. This engineering approach allowed for faster completion despite the complex demands of linking major highway routes.
