Acosta Bridge, Railway and road bridge in Jacksonville, US
The Acosta Bridge extends 501 meters across the St. Johns River with six traffic lanes and two railway tracks in the center median.
The initial structure opened in 1921 as Jacksonville's first automobile bridge, with the current bridge replacing it in 1994 after extensive reconstruction.
The bridge supports community events through its LED lighting system, which displays different colors for various celebrations throughout the year.
Pedestrians and cyclists access the bridge via dedicated sidewalks on both sides, while vehicles navigate the six lanes at a maximum speed of 45 mph.
The bridge features a 190-meter main span and maintains an 81-foot clearance for water vessels passing underneath on the St. Johns River.
