The Gay Street Bridge is a vehicle bridge that crosses the Tennessee River in Knoxville, Tennessee, United States. Completed in 1898, the 1,512-foot bridge is the oldest of four vehicle bridges connecting Downtown Knoxville with South Knoxville, the other three being the Henley Street Bridge, the Buck Karnes Bridge , and the James C. Ford Memorial Bridge.
The bridge is a steel spandrel-braced arched design with a concrete deck. There are five arched trusses, each 252 feet long, and two 126-foot approach spans at each end, all supported by a foundation of stone piers. The deck is 42 feet wide, and consists of two vehicle lanes, each flanked by a pedestrian sidewalk. The bridge originally contained trolley tracks, but these were removed in 1950.
