Introduction:
Located just two bridges and almost as many mile from Port Everglades, the Sheridan Street Bascule Bridge makes its way across the Intracoastal Waterway at Mile Marker 1070.5 with a 22-foot closed vertical clearance at 90 feet of horizontal clearance at the center spans. The bridge opens on demand.

Navigating the Bridge:
The bridge can be opened by horn signal (one long, one short) or by hailing the bridge tender on VHF Channel 09. (All bridges in the state of Florida must be hailed on VHF Channel 09.)
