Description
Here in the Tampa-St. Petersburg area bridge fans will find the largest cable-stayed bridge in the world. The super bridge spans Tampa Bay and makes up 5.5 miles of Interstate Highway 275. The 244 million dollar bridge, made of concrete and steel, took the American Bridge Company five years to build, opening to traffic in 1987.
Seen from Florida's Skyway Fishing Pier State Park, the 190 foot tall Sunshine Skyway Bridge is an integral part of a busy interstate highway averaging over 50,000 vehicles every day.
