Pearl Harbor Memorial Bridge, Extradosed road bridge in New Haven, US.

Pearl Harbor Memorial Bridge is an extradosed road bridge that crosses the Quinnipiac River near New Haven, Connecticut. It carries multiple lanes of Interstate 95 traffic in each direction, with a total length designed to handle significant daily vehicle volume.

The bridge opened in 2015 and replaced an older crossing from the previous century. It represented a major overhaul of regional transportation infrastructure designed to handle modern traffic demands.

During Pearl Harbor Remembrance Day, the bridge illuminates in red, white, and blue colors to honor those who lost their lives in the 1941 attack.

If you are driving, this crossing helps smooth traffic flow across the river while connecting different parts of the metropolitan area. The structure is most visible and easier to observe during lighter traffic periods when you can take time to notice its design.

The structure uses a cable-hybrid design that blends girder elements with cable support techniques. This engineering solution was chosen to span the river width while reducing the number of piers needed in the water below.
