Caloosahatchee Bridge, Road bridge spanning the Caloosahatchee River in Fort Myers, United States
The Caloosahatchee Bridge extends across one mile of water with four lanes connecting North Fort Myers to Fort Myers along U.S. Highway 41.
Opened in 1964 after two years of construction, the bridge altered the routing of US 41 to bypass downtown Fort Myers, replacing the former two-lane drawbridge.
The structure received the honorary name Henry Ford Bridge in 2014, reflecting the industrial heritage of Fort Myers while maintaining its original designation.
The Florida Department of Transportation maintains this 55-foot-high concrete structure that provides free passage between McGregor Boulevard and multiple state routes.
The bridge undergoes renovation to include an eight-foot sidewalk on its west side, requiring a complete closure for an expedited construction timeline.
