The Pensacola Bay Bridge is designated as US 98. That highway runs from West Palm Beach, FL to Natchez, MS as an east-west route (even number). When going to Gulf Breeze from Pensacola, by compass, it is roughly south. But when considering the bigger picture of the US 98 route alignment, one is traveling eastbound. The reverse is true when coming from Gulf Breeze to Pensacola. Re: why is southbound eastbound, and vice versa?

The bridge allows you to travel to the North/South. Can someone please explain this to me? I could never understand why they say the bridge is a East/West bound bridge.

Traffic lanes need no extra support, but a ten foot multi use path needs a massive (& I assume massive extra cost) support arch?

So, homeless veterans cannot get a bed to sleep in, but the bridge needs cleaning stations and restrooms? SMH. “Wonder if there will be restrooms and a cleaning station there?”

My boys can't wait for the bridge to be finished as that 10 foot wide "multi-use lane" will allow them to ride their electric bikes out there and tow a nice wagon full of fishing gear. Bet there is some really fine fishing in that deeper water area. Wonder if there will be restrooms and a cleaning station there? @ Escambia resident
