Shelby Reinhart Bridge - South Pittsburg, TN

Shelby Reinhart Bridge 4

Built in 1981, the Shelby Reinhart Bridge is used to carry highway TN156 across the Tennessee River to connect the towns of South Pittsburg and New Hope in Marion County, Tennessee. Before the bridge, there was a ferry just a few thousand feet south of here.

The big blue bridge is a metal through arch bridge and is 1,514 ft. long.

This view was taken from the now mostly forgotten old ferry road that became obsolete after this bridge was built.
