Banjamin Franklin Bridge

The Benjamin Franklin Bridge is an iconic suspension bridge connecting Camden, New Jersey to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. It is one of the longest suspension bridges in the world, standing at 2,375 m (7,800 feet). Constructed in 1926, it is the world's oldest suspension bridge still carrying vehicular traffic. The bridge has seven traffic lanes, a pedestrian-bicycle lane, and connects to the I-76 expressway in Pennsylvania and the US Highway 130 in New Jersey. The bridge has spectacular views of downtown Philadelphia, and is a popular spot to view fireworks on the Fourth of July. Located on the National Register of Historic Places, the bridge is a popular destination for sightseers and photographers.
