Every where in the world everyone has a bridge to nowhere or a road to nowhere. Well over here we a beautiful unfinished bridge to nowhere.
It has a dedicated/separated 12 ft shared use path along the northbound side of the bridge.
I don't know the original purpose of it. All I know that a probable recession brought the bridge itself to a halt and that no taxpayer was not used to build it. The current land owners of the bridge area belong to some Chinese company that just vanished into thin air after this scandal.
It's so nowhere, there's no link to a map or even a photo of said bridge
It's between Peachtree Road and I-635.

It was probably intended to intersect at a T with an access road that never materialized.
I found this video on it.

Looks like the I-635 frontage roads will attach to them when / if they are eventually built.
According to reddit sources check below the quoted source.
There many attempted uses such as a fancy medical center after it was left abandoned. There are no current plans to build on the property due to being inside the 100-flood year zone.
"I was advised that this was a corporate funded bridge and that no taxpayer money went towards building it. Apparently, the 635-revamp project created an opportunity where a logistics corporation wanted to add better access to the highway for their trucks which led to this being built. I'm not sure if plans were eventually scrapped or if it's still going to happen but the section of bridge sits on private property owned by the corporation."

Proposed plans for the bridge after it was left to rot. (https://www.wfaa.com/article/news/local/250m-medical-campus-planned-for-mesquite-could-add-1800-jobs/287-569461152)
