Fred Hartman Bridge
The Fred Hartman Bridge is a cable-stayed bridge spanning the Houston Ship Channel. The bridge is 2.6 miles (4.2 km) long and connects the cities of Baytown and La Porte.
The bridge replaced the Baytown Tunnel which was removed when the Houston Ship Channel was deepened to 45 feet (13.7 m), with a minimum 530 feet (161.5 m) bottom width, to accommodate larger ships.
