Ponquogue Bridge
The Ponquogue Bridge is a 2,812-foot-long (857 m) bridge over Shinnecock Bay in the hamlet of Hampton Bays, New York (within the town of Southampton). Maintained by the Department of Works for Suffolk County, the 29-span bridge carries two lanes of County Route 32 over the bay, connecting Hampton Bays to the eastern end of Westhampton Island. The bridge, which is made of concrete, has a 55-foot (17 m) vertical clearance above Shinnecock Bay. Constructed in 1986 at the cost of $14 million, the bridge replaced an older span over the bay, which was a 1,000-foot-long (300 m) wooden drawbridge built in 1930. The former Ponquogue Bridge currently serves as a fishing pier under the current span.
