Rodanthe Bridge, Transportation bridge in Rodanthe, North Carolina, United States
The 2.4-mile steel bridge extends over Pamlico Sound, connecting the southern end of Pea Island National Wildlife Refuge to northern Rodanthe.
Construction of the $145 million infrastructure project started in 2018 and opened to traffic in July 2022 after resolving pavement marking issues.
North Carolina Highway 12 bridge maintains essential connections between multiple Outer Banks communities while protecting the Pea Island National Wildlife Refuge.
The elevated structure redirects traffic away from a section of NC Highway 12 that experiences frequent flooding and storm damage throughout the year.
The engineering design incorporates a distinctive jug handle shape that curves westward into Pamlico Sound before returning eastward to bypass erosion zones.
