St. George's Bridge


St Georges, Delaware (DE), US
From http://www.pennways.com/DE-1_KWVM_Hwy.html#St_Georges_Bridge:

US-13 passes over the C & D Canal on a fixed high-level bridge that has 135 feet of vertical navigational clearance above the average high tide water level, and the bridge was opened to traffic in 1943. Given its age and its being paralleled by the new DE-1 C & D Canal Bridge about 1/2 mile to the west, DelDOT considered a plan to close and remove the US-13 St. Georges Bridge after the new DE-1 bridge opened.

This issue has been resolved in favor of keeping the US-13 St. Georges Bridge in service.
