Clement C. Clay Bridge, Huntsville

The Clement C. Clay Bridge is a two bridge span over the Tennessee River just south of Huntsville in the northern part of the U.S. state of Alabama. Both bridges are cantilever truss types. The original bridge span was built in 1931, replacing Whites Ferry which crossed the river at nearby Ditto Landing. The second span was constructed in 1965. Upon completion, the newer span carried southbound traffic while the original span carried northbound traffic. The Clay bridge was named after former Alabama Governor and Senator Clement Comer Clay.
