Byram Bridge, Suspension bridge in Byram, United States.
The Byram Bridge stretches 360 feet across the Pearl River, featuring twin towers and a central span of 200 feet between Hinds and Rankin counties.
Built in 1905 through collaboration between Byram merchants and Rankin County, the bridge earned its place on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.
The bridge stands as a testament to Mississippi's early transportation network, connecting rural communities and urban centers at the start of the 20th century.
Located at Old Byram and Florence Road, the structure transformed from a vehicle crossing to a pedestrian footbridge in 2015 after safety considerations.
The bridge spans approximately 2 acres and maintains its original swinging suspension design, constructed by the engineering firms Schuster & Jacob and Groome.
