Bridge View Park

The Michigan State Highway Department began a ferry service 1923 to connect the Upper and Lower Peninsulas. Eventually nine boats were in operation to transport people and vehicles across the Straits of Mackinac. Although building a bridge had been discussed as early as the 1880s it was until 1957 that the bridge- after three and a half years of construction - was opened.

The bridge is five miles long and almost 200 feet above the water at its highest point. The bridge is closed occasionally due to high winds or ice falling from the cables and towers. The wind is a concern even on calm days. The speed limit for cars is only 45 and 20 for trucks.

The park has a short paved walkway, picnic tables under shelters, and a small building housing displays, videos, restrooms, and large viewing windows for bad weather days(closed due to coronavirus).

Everything is accessible.

The parking lot is large enough for any vehicle. Park 45.8469, -84.72595
