Description

The Friendship Trail Bridge, formerly known as the "Old" Gandy Bridge, spans 2.6 miles (13,770.5 ft) over Tampa Bay. Connecting Tampa and Pinellas County, the bridge was transformed in 1999 from a traffic-bearing bridge to its current usage as a recreational trail, and provides a unique journey for bicyclists, in-line skaters, joggers, families, and fishermen.
