Eastvale Bridge

The Eastvale Bridge extends 800 feet across the Beaver River, connecting the borough of Eastvale with the city of Beaver Falls through PA Route 588.

The current structure, opened on November 22, 1963, replaced the original Fetterman Bridge from 1884 that served as a toll crossing for local communities.

Students from Geneva College on College Hill refer to this structure as the Blue Bridge, creating a local nickname that persists through generations.

The bridge provides a toll-free crossing point for vehicles and pedestrians, enabling direct access between communities on both sides of the Beaver River.

The bridge received its official name, John F. Kennedy Memorial Bridge, following the president's assassination on the same day as its opening.
