Kingston–Rhinecliff Bridge, Steel truss bridge in Kingston, United States.

The Kingston-Rhinecliff Bridge extends 7,793 feet across the Hudson River, connecting Ulster and Dutchess counties through a continuous under-deck truss design.

Construction of the bridge began in the 1950s following years of unreliable ferry service, with its official opening taking place on February 2, 1957.

The bridge received its ceremonial name in 2000 to honor George Clinton, the first governor of New York and fourth vice president of the United States.

The bridge carries New York State Route 199 and accommodates approximately 17,000 vehicles daily, operating with an electronic toll system for eastbound traffic.

The structure incorporates an Exodermic deck system with galvanized reinforcing steel, which reduces the total deck load while maintaining structural integrity.
