General W.K. Wilson Jr. Bridge

The General W.K. Wilson Jr. Bridge consists of dual parallel tied through arches of weathering steel and beam viaducts of concrete that form one continuous span carrying four lanes of Interstate 65 across the Mobile-Tensaw River Delta northeast of the U.S. city of Mobile, Alabama. Built from 1978 to 1980, it spans a distance of over the delta, making it, along with the Jubilee Parkway across Mobile Bay to its south, among the longest bridges in the nation. It was named in honor of Walter K. Wilson, a Chief of Engineers with the United States Army Corps of Engineers and long-term resident of Mobile.〔(【引用サイトリンク】work="The World Around You" )〕 He was credited with being one of the first people recognizing the need to construct a high-level bridge on Interstate 65 over the Mobile River that would not impede waterway development. The state of Alabama named the bridge in his honor after completion of construction in 1978.〔(【引用サイトリンク】work="United States Army Corps of Engineers" )
==Dolly Parton Bridge==
The bridge has red warning lights atop the parallel support arches. These, and the shape of the supporting arches when approached from certain directions, have caused the bridge to gain the nickname "The Dolly Parton Bridge", for reasons which may be recognizable to observers knowing the background of the nickname and noting the mammato-form appearance of the tied through-arches.
