Gibbs Street Pedestrian Bridge, Pedestrian and bicycle bridge in Portland, Oregon, US

The Gibbs Street Pedestrian Bridge, formally the US Congresswoman Darlene Hooley Pedestrian Bridge at Gibbs Street, is a steel box girder bridge about 700 feet (210 m) long in Portland, Oregon. It crosses I-5 and SW Macadam Avenue, linking SW Kelly Avenue in Lair Hill to SW Moody Avenue in South Waterfront. The South Waterfront end sits about 70 feet (21 m) lower than the Lair Hill end, a difference handled by an elevator and a 132-step stairway with rest areas.

Construction of the bridge started in January 2011 and was completed with an official opening in July 2012. The project was built to connect two previously separated areas of the city and improve infrastructure in this part of Portland.

The bridge is named after US Congresswoman Darlene Hooley to honor her efforts in improving transportation connections for Portland. It links two neighborhoods that were previously difficult to reach, creating new pathways for daily travel and community movement.

The bridge features 132 steps between the two levels, with rest areas placed along the way to pause if needed. An elevator is also available to handle the elevation change for those who prefer not to use the stairs.

The bridge was dedicated on July 14, 2012, and formally named the US Congresswoman Darlene Hooley Pedestrian Bridge at Gibbs Street for the retired representative. Its steel box girder design replaced an earlier extradosed plan after the first bidding round exceeded the budget. A 2005 federal transportation act had set aside $5 million for the project.
