Clay Shaw Bridge Bascule Span And Operator House From Southeast

            Clay Shaw Bridge (2001), also called the 17th Street Causeway Bridge, is a pair of twin parallel 54-foot-wide causeway structures, each incorporating a double-leaf bascule bridge, separated by a 13-foot open air median. This new bridge, spanning 210 feet between trunnions, increases navigable waterway width of the Intracoastal Waterway from 100 feet to 125 feet, and vertical clearance from 22 feet to 55 feet, over the previous 1956 bridge at this location – the Commodore Brook Memorial Causeway. Striking features of this bridge are its V-shaped Carina piers (providing excellent visibility for shipping navigation) and the Art Deco-style bridge operator’s house. Also notable are the open traffic railings (for greater vista visibility), emergency shoulders, bicycle lanes and sidewalks – with pedestrian overlooks incorporated into the bascule spans. Owner: Florida Department of Transport; Design consultant for piers and bascule bridge: EC Driver & Associates; Design of Bridge Structures: FIGG Bridge Engineers; Roadway: Keith & Schnars. Fort Lauderdale, Broward County, Florida, USA.
