I-35W Saint Anthony Falls Bridge
I-35W Saint Anthony Falls Bridge, Box girder bridge across Mississippi River in Minneapolis, United States.
The I-35W Saint Anthony Falls Bridge features two parallel spans constructed with prestressed concrete, measuring 371 meters in total length and 154 meters at its longest span.
Following the catastrophic collapse of its predecessor in August 2007, this modern infrastructure was constructed and opened to traffic on September 18, 2008.
The bridge design process incorporated extensive input from Minneapolis residents, business owners, and officials regarding elements such as pier shape, lighting schemes, and color selections.
The structure serves over 140,000 vehicles daily with ten traffic lanes, providing essential connectivity between downtown Minneapolis and the northern metropolitan districts.
Special lighting features integrated into the bridge structure illuminate the span at night, creating visual effects that reflect on the Mississippi River below.
