The Vulcan Bridge is a one-lane bridge located Vulcan, West Virginia. It spans the Tug Fork, and the Kentucky–West Virginia border. In 1977, after several failed attempts in contacting the West Virginia government to build a new bridge, the mayor of Vulcan requested aid from the Soviet Union to build the bridge, since the previous one had collapsed. This event placed international attention on the small community, and the state legislature subsequently granted 1.3 million to build the bridge. It was completed in 1980.
