Gulf Freeway Santa Fe RR Overpass


Recommended Posts

Now that the 1938 Causeway has been replaced, is the Santa Fe RR northbound overpass now the oldest infrastructure on the Gulf Freeway? I'm thinking it had to be built around the same time as the 1938 causeway. It carried two way traffic at one time, so I'm sure it predates any other overpass.

It is. The National Bridge Database gives it a completion year of 1939. It also lists a bridge on the SB feeder road as having a date of 1935, but it looks too new.
