Bourne Bridge, Road bridge in Bourne, Massachusetts, United States.

The steel arch bridge spans 616 feet across the Cape Cod Canal, with four traffic lanes and a pedestrian sidewalk on its western edge.

The Public Works Administration constructed this bridge in 1933, replacing a bascule bridge to accommodate the widening of the Cape Cod Canal.

The American Institute of Steel Construction recognized the bridge with a Class A Award of Merit for its steel design in 1934.

The bridge provides essential access between Cape Cod and mainland Massachusetts, carrying Route 28 traffic over the Cape Cod Canal.

The structure features a 135-foot clearance above the water, allowing large commercial vessels to pass underneath through the Cape Cod Canal.
