Long Key Bridge, Railway bridge in Florida Keys, US
The Long Key Bridge extends for 2.3 miles across the Long Key Channel, connecting Long Key and Conch Key with a clearance of 25 feet above water.
The original structure, completed in 1907 as Long Key Viaduct, included 186 concrete arches and served the Florida East Coast Railway until the 1935 Labor Day Hurricane.
The current structure bears the name of U.S. Representative Dante B. Fascell, who served from 1955 to 1993 and supported the development of Biscayne National Park.
The bridge carries both US Route 1 and essential infrastructure components, including water supply lines and telecommunications cables that maintain connectivity throughout the lower Keys.
The construction method of the current bridge allowed for rapid assembly, with the entire superstructure completed in under one year using precast segmented box girders.
