Girard Point Bridge

Opened in 1973, the toll-free cantilevered truss bridge carries Interstate 95 with three lanes in each direction, linking Philadelphia International Airport with the city. It stands as an imposing industrial landmark and the final crossing before the Schuylkill meets the Delaware River. Traversing it comes with everyday highway friction: northbound trips frequently run into heavy traffic delays, and the bridge's substantial heights can feel intimidating behind the wheel.
