Cars drive over the newly completed westbound portion (right side of photo) of the NASA Causeway Bridge leading away from NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida on Wednesday, March 19, 2025. The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) opened the span on Tuesday, March 18, 2025, alongside its twin on the eastbound side, which has accommodated traffic in both directions since FDOT opened it on June 9, 2023. The high-rise bridge spans the Indian River Lagoon and connects NASA Kennedy and the Cape Canaveral Space Force Station to the mainland via State Road 405/NASA Causeway in Titusville, replacing the two-lane drawbridge built in the mid-1960s to support the Apollo program.
