Bourne Bridge

The Bourne Bridge is a large metal structure that spans the Cape Cod Canal in Massachusetts, connecting the towns of Bourne and Cape Cod. It functions as a drawbridge, allowing ships to pass underneath while also supporting road traffic over the waterway. The bridge is an important transportation link, facilitating travel between the mainland and Cape Cod, and is part of U.S. Route 28. Its design ensures smooth flow of both vehicular traffic and maritime navigation, making it a vital infrastructure component for residents, commuters, and freight movement in the region.
