The old 1937 Palm Valley drawbridge, built by The Auchter Company that was demolished and replaced in 2002
The Palm Valley Bridge spans the Intracoastal Waterway in the Palm Valley area near Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida. It is located on County Road 210 in St. Johns County.[1] In 2002, the old two lane drawbridge was replaced with a fixed, clear span, four-lane bridge. Ground-breaking was in December 2000 and the official ribbon cutting ceremony was held in July 2002. The Palm Valley Bridge was built due to increasing traffic on the bridge and population growth in the area.
