Lowry Avenue Bridge, Steel bridge in Minneapolis, United States

The Lowry Avenue Bridge stretches 1,600 feet across the Mississippi River with a four-lane road and dedicated pathways for pedestrians and cyclists.

The current structure replaced a previous bridge from 1905 that underwent modifications in 1958 before its demolition due to structural concerns in 2009.

The bridge serves as a central connection point for Minneapolis communities, facilitating daily movement between residential areas and business districts.

The bridge incorporates an advanced anti-icing system and LED lighting technology to enhance safety during winter conditions and night travel.

The structure features a basket handle steel arch design with a 450-foot main span and the largest underground sand filtration system in the upper Midwest.
