Palm Beach County, Florida Bridges: South Beach Road Bridge across the Intracoastal Waterway

January 2014 (26.95250 Degrees, -80.07861 Degrees) South Beach Road Bridge

A little north of the Loxahatchee River is the South Beach Road (CR-707) Bridge (FDOT #930056) across the Intracoastal Waterway. It's a 574 ft long concrete trestle bridge with a double leaf steel bascule span that was built in 1969. The bridge provides a 90 ft clear channel span and 24 ft vertical clearance in the closed position. We can see one of the counterweights on the opposite side of the bascule pier in both photos.
