This bridge, officially called the Veterans Memorial Bridge, is the last of a series of bridges built to reduce ferry crossings after a tragic ferry accident in the 70s caused by a drunk crew. It was the newest bridge over the Mississippi in Louisiana until the completion of the John James Audubon Bridge in 2011.
