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.

Famous quotes containing the word bridges:
“And Reason kens he herits in
A haunted house. Tenants unknown
Assert their squalid lease of sin
With earlier title than his own.”
—Robert Bridges (1844–1930)
“We live technologically, with man as the master of nature, man as the engineer, and let anyone who raises his voice against it stop using bridges not built by nature.... No electric light bulbs, no engines, no atomic energy, no calculating machines, no anaesthetics—back to the jungle.”
—Max Frisch (1911–1991)
“to-morrow it seem
Like the empty words of a dream
Remembered on waking.”
