Bridges
Wheeling Island is connected to downtown Wheeling via the Fort Henry Bridge, which carries Interstate 70, the National Road (U.S. Route 40), and U.S. Route 250, and the Wheeling Suspension Bridge.
Two additional bridges cross the back channel of the Ohio River to connect the island to Bridgeport, one for Interstate 70, and a second for US 250 and US 40.

“As night is withdrawn
From these sweet-springing meads and bursting boughs of May,
Dream, while the innumerable choir of day
Welcome the dawn.”
