A. Max Brewer Bridge is a concrete bridge in Titusville, Florida.[1] The bridge cost $44.8 million to build. The bridge was selected for the People’s Choice Award, an award presented by the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials.[2]

Reconstruction

The bridge went under construction because of poor condition, which could have caused the bridge to collapse. A high-level fixed bridge was replaced over the low-level and short original bridge.[3]

Jumping from the bridge

In August 2012, two teens jumped from the 80-foot bridge. Police said they jumped from the bridge as a birthday celebration. One of the teens was injured and was sent to a hospital.[4]
