The
John F. Kennedy Boulevard Bridge was built in 1959 and reconstructed 2009 by the
Pennsylvania Department of Transportation. It carries three lanes (two lanes westbound, one lane eastbound) of John F. Kennedy Boulevard (
Pennsylvania Route 3 westbound, known as Pennsylvania Boulevard until
1963) across the
Schuylkill River,
Schuylkill River Trail, and
CSX Transportation tracks. The overpass continues east, passing over 23rd, 22nd, and 21st streets to terminate at 20th Street. The bridge runs parallel to the
SEPTA Regional Rail's
Main Line tracks.
