Rankin Bridge, Truss road bridge in Allegheny County, United States
Rankin Bridge is a steel structure spanning the Monongahela River with four traffic lanes and sidewalks on both sides. It connects Braddock Avenue with River Boulevard, serving both vehicle and pedestrian traffic.
Built in 1951 by the American Bridge Company, this steel structure created a vital link between Rankin and Munhall communities. It became a central part of transportation infrastructure in this industrial region.
The George Rankin Jr. Memorial Bridge represents mid-20th century engineering practices while serving as a central element in local transportation infrastructure.
The deck provides safe passage for vehicles and pedestrians with adequate space on both sides. The height over the river allows boat traffic to pass underneath without obstruction.
The bridge carries the Green Belt route through industrial western Pennsylvania at a distinctive river location. This positioning makes it a useful landmark for local navigation and travel planning.
