Billy's Creek Bridge

The Billy's Creek Bridge is a historic vertical-lift bridge located just east of downtown Fort Myers, Florida. It carries westbound traffic of State Road 80 (known as Palm Beach Boulevard on the west side and First Street on the east side) across Billy's Creek. It carried State Road 80 in both directions before eastbound traffic was rerouted onto the adjacent Second and Seaboard Streets.

The bridge was built in 1941. As a vertical lift bridge, it has four short towers that house the lift mechanisms, which is a unique design for lift bridges. The lift was abandoned in 1987 and hasn't been opened since.
