Waccamaw River Memorial Bridge
Waccamaw River Memorial Bridge, Historic road bridge in Conway, South Carolina.
The Waccamaw River Memorial Bridge spans 1,270 feet across the Waccamaw River with four steel girder main spans and concrete piers featuring Gothic pointed arches.
Built in 1937 at a cost of $370,000, the bridge replaced a single-lane structure to accommodate increasing traffic between Conway and the developing Myrtle Beach area.
The bridge stands as a memorial to Horry County citizens who served in military conflicts from the American Revolution through the First World War.
The structure carries U.S. Route 501 Business over the Waccamaw River, connecting North Conway to the Aynor and Yauhannah regions of South Carolina.
Twenty-eight cast-iron light standards line the balustrade of this National Register of Historic Places bridge, which features rare Gothic-influenced architectural elements.
