Frederick C. Malkus Bridge, Road bridge across Choptank River in Cambridge, Maryland, US
The Frederick C. Malkus Bridge spans the Choptank River with four lanes of traffic, connecting the towns of Cambridge and Trappe in Maryland.
The Maryland State Highway Administration constructed this concrete bridge in 1987 to replace the former Emerson C. Harrington Bridge at this location.
Maryland honored Senator Frederick Malkus Jr by naming this bridge after him during his lifetime, marking him as the first living Marylander with this distinction.
The bridge carries U.S. Route 50 traffic and serves as a primary transportation link in Dorchester County, facilitating movement between eastern and western Maryland.
The structure incorporates pre-stressed and pre-cast concrete components across its spans, ensuring long-term stability for vehicle passage over the Choptank River.
