Jonathon Hulton Bridge

The Jonathon Hulton Bridge stretches 1,633 linear feet across the Allegheny River with a five-span haunched girder design connecting Oakmont and Harmar Township.

The original bridge, constructed in 1908 by the American Bridge Company of New York, operated as a vital crossing point where the Hulton family previously ran a ferry service.

In 1989, a legislative decision temporarily renamed the structure to honor Pennsylvania Representative Joseph F. Bonetto before reverting to its original designation.

The bridge features four traffic lanes, pedestrian walkways, and updated infrastructure components, constructed at a cost of 65 million dollars with federal funding support.

During construction, engineers employed strand jacking techniques to elevate a 1,200-ton segment of the main span over the active river channel.
