Guy West Bridge, Suspension bridge at California State University Sacramento, United States.
The Guy West Bridge spans 1,144 feet across the American River, connecting California State University Sacramento with the Campus Commons residential area.
The bridge opened in 1967 with a construction cost of $636,000 and received recognition as a special prize winner in the 1968 AISC steel bridges contest.
The structure bears the name of Dr. Guy West, who served as the first president of Sacramento State from 1947 to 1965.
The bridge underwent a $3 million restoration in 2014, including removal of lead-based paint and application of new international orange coating.
Six discharge pipes extend from the first tower, facilitating stormwater drainage from the eastern campus directly into the American River.
