Sydney Lanier Bridge

Sydney Lanier Bridge

Sydney Lanier Bridge – the longest bridge in Georgia. We crossed this bridge heading to Jykell Island.

Its outstretched arms linking Brunswick to the rest of the Golden Isles, the Sidney Lanier Bridge soars over the Brunswick River. This, the longest-spanning bridge in Georgia, stretches 7,779 feet across and reaches 480 feet at its highest point. The sleek design creates a sense of lightness that belies the 95,283 cubic yards of concrete and 14,810,095 pounds of reinforcing steel used to construct the massive structure.

  2. The bridge between the ports of Long Beach and Los Angeles was recently replaced with this style. But, lacking the long ramps on each side, it’s not nearly as pretty as this one.

      1. Even from a distance, our 2 back-to-back port bridges, I still prefer the Vincent Thomas bridge. But it’s much larger and every time I drive it, I fear driving off it and plunging into the port…probably because the speed limit is… 45?… and traffic is usually doing 70+.
