Selander Bridge is a bridge in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania that connects the city centre to the northern Oyster Bay neighbourhood. It was constructed in 1929 and is named after John Einar Selander, Tanganyika's first Director of Public Works.

The present bridge was funded by Japan International Cooperation Agency in 1980 and was its first road project in Tanzania. It lies along the Ali Hassan Mwinyi road.
