Bloomington Ferry Trail Bridge, Footbridge and bicycle bridge over Minnesota River between Bloomington and Shakopee, US.

The Bloomington Ferry Trail Bridge spans 1.1 miles across the Minnesota River, offering separate lanes for cyclists and pedestrians to cross between two cities.

The bridge location marks a transportation point dating back to 1849 when the first ferry service operated between Bloomington and Shakopee communities.

This crossing point connects multiple trail networks, enabling local residents to participate in outdoor activities while traveling between the two communities.

The bridge features dedicated paths with adequate lighting and safety railings, making it accessible for both commuters and recreational users throughout the year.

Located three-quarters of a mile downstream from the vehicle bridge, this structure replaced a previous two-lane swing bridge that served the area until 1998.
