The Passyunk Avenue Bridge is a double leaf bascule bridge spanning the Schuylkill River between the South Philadelphia and the Southwest Philadelphia sections of Philadelphia.
The current bridge was completed in 1983. It was constructed on an alignment slightly to the north of its predecessor, a 2-lane double-leaf bascule bridge dating to 1911.
