The Trammell bridge over the Apalachicola River, by chance?

jlam, You are correct!

For those who don't know of this bridge, it is part of FL 20 in the Florida panhandle, crossing the Apalachicola River between the towns of Blountstown and Bristol. It is also the boundary between the Eastern and Central time zones.

The older bridge in the foreground is the original crossing, carrying two lanes (one each way) of FL 20, and was built in 1938. I drove over this bridge quite a few times in the late 1970's commuting between home and college.

The newer bridge was built in 1998, parallel to the older bridge. I believe it was at this time that it was named "Trammell". The newer bridge carries two lanes eastward, the older bridge was restriped for one lane westward. Presumably it was considered too narrow by modern standards for two lanes. I haven't been there since before the new bridge was built.

Been about a month with no guesses yet ... maybe a clue is in order?

Not taking a guess, but a clue could be that it's quite a high bridge?

I think I know what it is. The Richard I. Bong Bridge between Duluth and Superior.

Doesn’t look like it’s in the US.

It's not.

Is that the Tsing Ma Bridge in Hong Kong?

Is this the Port Mann Bridge (TCH 1) over the Fraser River in Surrey, BC?

plain · « **Reply #539 on:** January 08, 2022, 09:10:17 PM »

Nope.

JayhawkCO was closer.

dlsterner · « **Reply #540 on:** January 09, 2022, 12:40:30 AM »

Could it be the Kap Shui Man Bridge, also in Hong Kong? (The bridge just west of JayhawkCO's guess of the Tsing Ma bridge?)

plain · « **Reply #541 on:** January 09, 2022, 12:45:18 PM »

Nope.

Unless there are 2 Shenzhen bay bridges, I don’t think so.

Does the poster of the photo have any hints?

My bridge is still in play.

And your bridge is the old Cooper River Bridge in Charleston, SC.

The multiple "101" and "tall building" references make me think it’s somewhere in Taiwan because the tallest building in Taiwan is called Taipei 101.

Edited to add: The Chongyang Bridge in Taipei seen from the next bridge nearby (you’ll have to click into Street View since the Google Maps app isn’t letting me get a Street View link):
