James B. Edwards Bridge, Box girder road bridge between Charleston and Mount Pleasant, United States
The James B. Edwards Bridge spans across the Wando River with twin concrete structures stretching 7,900 feet to connect Charleston and Mount Pleasant.
The South Carolina Department of Transportation completed the construction of this $34 million infrastructure project in 1989 to enhance regional connectivity.
The bridge carries the name of James B. Edwards, who served as South Carolina governor and president of the Medical University of South Carolina.
The bridge accommodates 45,300 vehicles daily across four active lanes, with additional space reserved for future expansion to six lanes.
Engineers employed a top-down construction method using precast concrete segments to protect the surrounding marsh areas during the building process.
