Cross Florida Barge Canal Bridge

USA / Florida / Welaka /

Very, very high bridge built to accomodate barges and other shipping traffic in a plan that would have effectively cut Florida in half by building a canal through it. As you can see, the canal was built up to a point, but it was scrapped in 1991 due to environmental concerns.
