Vicksburg Bridge, Cantilever road bridge across Mississippi River between Delta and Vicksburg, United States.
The Vicksburg Bridge extends 12,974 feet across the Mississippi River, featuring a central span of 870 feet and a clearance of 116 feet.
The bridge officially opened on February 14, 1973, replacing an older structure from 1930 that served both rail and vehicle traffic across the Mississippi River.
The bridge forms an essential connection between Louisiana and Mississippi, supporting regional transportation networks and commercial activities along the Mississippi River corridor.
The structure carries Interstate 20 and U.S. Route 80 traffic, with approximately 25,000 vehicles crossing daily between the states of Louisiana and Mississippi.
A 2020 rehabilitation project upgraded the bridge with new concrete surfacing, LED lighting systems, and advanced monitoring technology for enhanced safety measures.
