Location
Queen Isabella Memorial Bridge is a concrete pier-and-beam bridge with a steel cantilever main beam span connecting Port Isabel to South Padre Island, Texas. The bridge sustains the continuation of Texas Park Road 100. The watercourse thoroughfare is located in southern Cameron County, Texas and is the only road connecting South Padre Island to the geography of Texas.
The Causeway opened in 1974 and replaced the previous bridge, which had also been named Queen Isabella Causeway. A central section of the original causeway was removed and renamed the Queen Isabella State Fishing Pier. Stretching 2.37 miles (3.81 km) across the Laguna Madre, the Causeway is the second-longest bridge in Texas, after the Fred Hartman Bridge over the Houston Ship Channel.[2] It is named after Queen Isabella of Castile.
