Charles E. Bennett Memorial Bridge, Road bridge in Jacksonville, Florida, US.

The Charles E. Bennett Memorial Bridge spans across the Intracoastal Waterway south of the St. Johns River, reaching a height of 65 feet.

Construction of the bridge commenced in May 2001 and underwent significant revisions before its final completion in July 2004, costing $36.5 million.

The bridge bears the name of Charles Edward Bennett, a United States House Representative who contributed to establishing the Mayport Naval Station.

The structure carries Florida State Road 116 and serves approximately 10,500 vehicles daily, connecting Arlington to Mayport Road for efficient transportation.

Engineers halted construction in 2003 upon discovering the center span would not meet Coast Guard height requirements, leading to necessary design modifications.
