Glenn L. Jackson Memorial Bridge, Interstate bridge across Columbia River between Portland and Vancouver, United States
The Glenn L. Jackson Memorial Bridge stretches 11,750 feet across the Columbia River with twin structures supporting four lanes in each direction.
The bridge opened on December 15, 1982, after five years of construction and a total investment of 169.6 million dollars in transportation infrastructure.
The bridge dedication ceremony featured separate ribbons representing Oregon's blue and gold colors alongside Washington's green and white state colors.
The structure includes a 9-foot-wide path between the spans that serves pedestrians and cyclists, connecting to the I-205 Trail through Portland.
The bridge segments, each weighing over 200 tons, were manufactured 4 miles downstream and transported by barge to their installation locations.
