Introduction:

The Southwest Second Avenue Bridge crosses the Miami River amid a mass of newly built high-rise buildings and a power substation almost masked by a row of palm trees. The bridge has a closed vertical clearance of 18 feet*, with 75 feet of horizontal clearance at the center span. The bridge operates on a restricted opening schedule. Monday through Friday, from 7:30 to 9 a.m. and from 4:30 to 6 p.m., the bridge does not open to waiting vessels. The bridge opens on demand at all other times.

*Note: NOAA charts indicate a vertical clearance of 12' for this bridge, however, local boaters report 18'.
