Beesley's Point Bridge, Road bridge and toll bridge in Great Egg Harbor Bay, US.
The Beesley's Point Bridge spans 4,800 feet across Great Egg Harbor Bay, connecting Upper Township in Cape May County to Somers Point in Atlantic County.
The Ocean City Automobile Club constructed the bridge in 1927, opening it in 1928 as a vital connection point for U.S. Route 9 over Great Egg Harbor Bay.
The bridge served as a central transportation artery for local communities until 2004, facilitating daily commutes and seasonal tourism between Atlantic and Cape May counties.
The structure included two traffic lanes and an 80-foot double leaf bascule span that allowed maritime vessels to pass underneath during its operational years.
After its closure in 2004, the bridge's toll keeper's vehicle remained parked on the structure until its eventual demolition, which began in July 2013.
