A '''bridge to nowhere''' is a [[bridge]] where one or both ends are broken, incomplete, or unconnected to any [[road]]s. If it is an [[overpass]] or an [[Interchange (road)|interchange]], the term '''overpass to nowhere''' or '''interchange to nowhere''' may be used respectively.<ref>((cite news|last=Daniel|first=Mac|title=Work underway on Route 128 widening project|url=http://www.boston.com/news/local/articles/2004/12/12/work_underway_on_route_128_widening_project?pg=full|access-date=15 February 2014|date=12 December 2004))</ref><ref>((cite news|last=Rosen|first=Jill|title=I-95 Exit 'To Nowhere' Will Now Go Somewhere|url=http://articles.sun-sentinel.com/1998-11-02/news/9811010194_1_carr-business-park-interchange|access-date=12 March 2014|newspaper=Sun Sentinel|date=2 November 1998|archive-date=12 March 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140312213229/http://articles.sun-sentinel.com/1998-11-02/news/9811010194_1_carr-business-park-interchange|url-status=dead))</ref>

==Origins==
There are five main origins for these bridges:
* The bridge was never completed for reasons such as [[Cost overrun|cost]] or disputed [[Real property|property right]]s.
* One or both of the bridge's ends have collapsed or have been destroyed, for example, by earthquake, storm, flood, or war.
* The bridge is no longer used, but was not [[Demolition|demolished]] because of the cost; for example, the bridges on an [[abandoned railway]] line.
* The bridge is completed, but the [[street]]s connecting the bridge are not completed.
* The bridge or any other part of the construction can be regarded as a [[pork barrel]] project aimed at useless fund spending or money laundering with minor or negligible public usefulness.

==Metaphoric use==
Further, the term "bridge to nowhere" may be used by [[Dissident|political opponent]]s to describe a bridge (or proposed bridge) that serves low-population areas at high cost, a symbol of [[pork barrel]] spending.<ref>((cite web|last=Ou|first=Lingxiao|title=The Results Are In: Chinese Stimulus Fails|url=http://blog.heritage.org/2012/08/10/the-results-are-in-chinese-stimulus-fails/|publisher=The Heritage Foundation|access-date=11 August 2012|quote=The world's longest sea bridge, built in Qingdao, [the [[Jiaozhou Bay Bridge]] ] has few users, making it the Chinese version of the "Bridge to Nowhere".|date=2012-08-10))</ref>

It may also be used to describe a useless construction in overall.

It can simply mean as well "dead end" or "useless" in that way without referring to a construction.

==Incomplete and damaged bridges==
===Argentina===
*  The two-lane elevated concrete vehicle bridge across the Cosquin River in Cosquin, province of Cordoba, Argentina, that was intended to connect Calle Pedro Ortiz, to the west, to Avenida Capitan Aviador Omar Castillo, to the east, was never opened.  The span of the bridge itself was complete, but it was never connected to the road system on either end, and the ends of the span remained blocked by steep piles of rubble.  In lieu of the elevated vehicle bridge, the small, low Onofre Marimon Bridge connected the two streets for small volumes of pedestrian traffic.  In 2020 it was finally connected at both ends and open to vehicle traffic,<ref>((cite web | url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IR4LcqYepgI | title=Nuevo puente: Mercedes Sosa en Cosquín | website=[[YouTube]] ))</ref> and the lower bridge was demolished. The remains of the bridge can still be seen at Puente Mercedes Sosa.

===Belgium===
* Rue Emile Pathé/Emile Pathéstraat in [[Forest, Belgium|Forest]], [[Brussels]] (((coord| 50.7996|N| 4.3067|E|))), was originally intended to be part of the southern arc of the [[Brussels Ring|R0 Brussels motorway ring]], which was never built owing to opposition from local residents. It now functions mostly as a car park.

===Canada===
* Port Nelson Bridge, an isolated rail bridge near [[Port Nelson, Manitoba]]. The connecting rail line was never finished due to labour and material shortages, a lack of financial or political support, and high cost. The envisioned port was also poorly designed and was found to require excessive [[dredging]] due to significant sand bars. The project was greatly criticized by several politicians (the media calling it a "gigantic blunder").<ref>((cite journal |last= Malaher |first= David |title= Port Nelson and the Hudson Bay Railway |date=Autumn 1984 |journal= Manitoba History |issue= 8 |publisher= [[Manitoba Historical Society]] |issn= 0226-5036 |url= http://www.mhs.mb.ca/docs/mb_history/08/hudsonbayrailway.shtml |access-date= 2010-08-20))</ref>

* Gaglardi Way in [[Burnaby|Burnaby, British Columbia]], ended suddenly at the south end at just a forest, due to a residential subdivision beyond the point with two cloverleaf ramps that were blocked off, now removed along with the dead end peculiarity in the 2000's.

===China===
* [[Yalu River Broken Bridge]] in [[Dandong]]. The south span was destroyed during the [[Korean War]].
* [[New Yalu River Bridge]] in Dandong. The US$330 million bridge was completed in 2015, but on the [[North Korea]]n side it is not connected to the road network.<ref>((cite news |last=Wong |first=Sue-Lin |url=https://www.reuters.com/article/us-northkorea-nuclear-china-idUSKCN11H05F |title=Bridge to nowhere shows China's failed efforts to engage North Korea |work=Reuters |date=11 September 2016 |access-date=11 December 2016))</ref>
* [[Nandu River Iron Bridge]] in [[Hainan]] is a partially collapsed, steel truss bridge over the [[Nandu River]]. It was built by the [[Imperial Japanese Army]] during the [[Second Sino-Japanese War]]. In October 2000, flooding caused the collapse of the western part of the bridge, leaving three trusses.

===Czech Republic===
* The [[Borovsko Bridge]], an unfinished motorway bridge from the 1930s near Borovsko, part of [[Bernartice (Benešov District)|Bernartice]] municipality, [[Central Bohemian Region]].
* There are several bridges to nowhere, started to be built as a part of extraterritorial highway [[Vienna]]-[[Wrocław]] (so-called "[[Reichsautobahn|Hitler's highway]]"), which remain unfinished and unconnected to the road network.

===Germany===
[[File:Soda Bruecke bei Euskirchen.jpg|thumb|Soda-Brücke Euskirchen]]
The colloquial name for a bridge to nowhere in Germany is "Soda-Brücke" (a pun on "so da" = "just there"). Many of the bridges were built in the 1970s as part of the [[Autobahn]] network, but the oil crisis and rising environmental consciousness slowed many highway extensions.

* The [[Bundesautobahn 66]] had a bridge near Ahl ([[Bad Soden-Salmünster]]) built in 1966 that was not connected until 1994. 
* The bridge near [[Euskirchen]] was planned to be part of Autobahn 56. Construction was stopped, and the existing parts of the highway were renamed [[Bundesautobahn 562]]. (((coord|50|40|39|N|6|44|54|E|type:landmark_region:DE|name=Soda-Brücke)))
* The bridge near Merklinde, a suburb of [[Castrop-Rauxel]], was to be part of the B245 expressway and the "New [[Hellweg]]". The bridge was completed in 1978 but was never connected. (((coord| 51.5374|N| 7.3391|E|type:landmark_region:DE|name=Soda-Brücke)))
* The Schänzlebrücke in [[Konstanz]] was built 1975 but not connected until 2007. (((coord|47.6701|N|9.1630|E|type:landmark_region:DE|name=Soda-Brücke)))

===Honduras===
* The [[Choluteca Bridge|Bridge of Rising Sun]] in [[Choluteca, Honduras|Choluteca]], completed in 1998, became a bridge to nowhere the same year when [[Hurricane Mitch]] hit Honduras. While the bridge itself survived with minor damage, the roads on either end got entirely washed away and the [[Choluteca River]] had carved itself a new channel on the side, leaving the bridge to span dry ground. It eventually got reconnected to the highway in 2003.

=== Hong Kong ===
* In New Kowloon, a flyover used to connect [[Prince Edward Road East]] outside [[Regal Hotels International|Regal Meridien Hotel]] to the old [[Kai Tak Airport]] (coded K72).

===Hungary===
*A former railway bridge sits over the [[Váci út]] in [[Budapest]]. Its rail line was disconnected in the early 1990s, and the east side of the bridge was demolished to make room for new construction. (((coord|47.554984|19.075610|type:landmark_region:HU))) A second bridge sits over a minor road on the same rail line to the southwest, and the former station is now a parking lot.

* [[Broken bridge, Chennai|Broken bridge]], in [[Chennai]], [[South India]], partly collapsed due to strong currents of the river in 1977 and has never been repaired.

===Indonesia===
* An unused double-track concrete railway bridge over Ngaglik street in [[Surabaya]]. It was originally built for a proposed railway line that would connect [[Surabaya Gubeng railway station|Gubeng]] and [[Surabaya Pasar Turi railway station|Pasar Turi station]] on an elevated line. Due to [[Great Depression|economic crisis in the 1930s]], which was followed by the [[Second World War]], and lastly the [[Indonesian National Revolution]], the project was never completed; the bridge stood as testimony of the forgotten project.

* [[Eintveit Bridge]], a ((convert|25|m))-long two-lane road bridge in [[Etne]] municipality in [[Hordaland]] county, was completed in 1962 and was intended to be part of a road on the northwestern side of [[Åkrafjorden]]. But the road was never built, and the bridge has remained unused except occasionally by hikers. In 2014 broadcaster [[NRK]] organized the "opening" of the bridge. Two cars were flown in by helicopter and then drove across the bridge.<ref>[http://www.nrk.no/hordaland/opna-brua-52-ar-for-seint-1.11461393 NRK: Ei 52 år forseinka bruopning] (3 February 2014, retrieved 19 August 2014)</ref><ref>[http://www.nrk.no/hordaland/_-dette-var-ein-vill-reportasjeide-1.11524922 NRK: – Dette var ein vill reportasjeidé] (7 February 2014, retrieved 19 August 2014)</ref>

* Several structures on unfinished [[Olimpijka]] motorway. Its construction started in 1976 with the propaganda goal of completing it in time for the [[Moscow Olympics]] in 1980 (hence its unofficial name, as part of Berlin-Moscow connection). Because of the economic crisis which hit the country in the late 1970s and continued throughout the 1980s, only a small section was opened. Construction of another stretch resumed only in 2001, as a part of [[A2 autostrada (Poland)|A2 motorway]]. Since 2010 the plan was to finish the whole link between the border with Germany and Warsaw, this time for the [[UEFA Euro 2012]] football championships. This meant that weathered remains of 1970s structures had to be demolished in the 2010s.
* Several structures on unfinished [[Berlinka]], [[Nazi Germany]]'s ''[[Reichsautobahn]] Berlin-Königsberg'' started in 1936. Some of them have been demolished as late as the 2010s.

===Romania===
*Ciurel Bridge is an unfinished infrastructure project located in Bucharest, Romania. It gained significant attention and earned the nickname "Bridge to Nowhere" or "Bridge to Nothing" on social media. The construction was initiated as part of an expansion towards the A1 Highway, but the remaining section of the project, an 8.3-kilometer road, has not been built. Currently, the bridge only serves as a left turn and resolves the traffic issue for those traveling from Virtuții Road to Splaiul Independenței. Pro Infrastructura, an organization that monitors infrastructure projects, argues that the Bucharest City Hall should have made a decision regarding the continuation of the road to the A1 Highway, covering the distance of 8.3 kilometers. Without this connection, the Virtuții Junction (Ciurel Passage) does not effectively address the traffic congestion, as it was originally intended to alleviate the traffic on Iuliu Maniu Boulevard. Sorin Ioniță, an activist who has closely followed the project, criticized it, stating, "This passage will cross a T-intersection on a picturesque bridge with ramps, descend on the other side, and lead the cars to the exact same place as before, Virtuții Road. All at an impressive cost of over 400 million lei. This road passage in Sector 6 is probably the most useless and foolish investment in Romania since '89,". The construction of the passage began in 2010 and was initially scheduled for completion in December 2014. Delays in the project were caused by litigation and financial constraints.

* A two-lane vehicle bridge in [[Pavlovsky Posad]], completed in 2011, continues the minor Vachevskaya Street in the west across the Vokhna River. In the east, there is a dead end, as no vehicle road has been built there, with only a footpath branching off to another street. The bridge may become integrated into traffic once a new road tunnel under railway is completed nearby, and together they would replace a problematic level crossing.<ref>((cite web |url=http://www.skmost.ru/objects/auto/pavlovsky-posad/ |script-title=ru:Путепровод в Павловском Посаде |language=ru |access-date=2014-12-22))</ref> The bridge was open for vehicle traffic in July 2015.<ref>[http://mosreg.ru/multimedia/novosti/all/gubernator-proinspektiroval-stroitelstvo-polikliniki-otkryl-puteprovod-i-vstretilsya-s-zhitelyami-v-/#undefined Губернатор проинспектировал строительство поликлиники, открыл путепровод и встретился с жителями в Павловском Посаде] ((in lang|ru)) ''mosreg.ru'', 2015-07-22; Retrieved 2016-04-06</ref>

* A four-lane vehicle overpass across the [[Moscow Ring Road]] at kilometer 83 (sometimes called the Molokovsky Overpass) continues Molokova Street in the [[Lianozovo District]] of [[Moscow]] outside the city. Molokova Street is in a gated community with only local traffic allowed; at the other end, the bridge serves only the Lianozovo Cemetery with a small parking lot next to it, coming to a dead end before a forest. As a result, the overpass only receives significant traffic on [[prayer for the dead]] days such as [[Saturday of Souls]].

* The [[Abandoned Pennsylvania Turnpike]] features several bridges that are no longer used for their intended purpose of vehicular traffic, but are still used by pedestrians and cyclists. The [[Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission]] demolished two of the bridges in 2005, one over [[U.S. Route 30 in Pennsylvania|US 30]] in [[Breezewood, Pennsylvania]] and the other further east on Pump Station Road, partially to mark the property lines between the PTC-owned sections that still connect to the active mainline [[Pennsylvania Turnpike]] and the section that was sold off to [[Southern Alleghenies Conservancy]] in 2001, the latter of which owns the section that features the [[Rays Hill Tunnel|Rays Hill]] and [[Sideling Hill Tunnel]]s.

*The [[Illinois Central Missouri River Bridge]] between [[Omaha, Nebraska|Omaha]], [[Nebraska]] and [[Council Bluffs, Iowa|Council Bluffs]], [[Iowa]] is a disused double-swing railroad bridge.
