Brooks Bridge, Road bridge in Fort Walton Beach, United States.
The Brooks Bridge extends over Santa Rosa Sound, connecting Fort Walton Beach to Okaloosa Island with four lanes of vehicular traffic.
The current Brooks Bridge, inaugurated in 1966, replaced a 1930s steel truss bridge that pivoted to allow tall ships to pass underneath.
The bridge forms a central element in Fort Walton Beach's infrastructure, shaping the daily routines of residents traveling between coastal communities.
Construction of a new six-lane structure began in 2023, with completion expected by mid-2027, requiring periodic traffic adjustments during the work.
The replacement project includes an underpass section specifically designed for traffic flow to and from Santa Rosa Boulevard.
