The Washington Bridge is a paired bridge carrying Interstate 195 over the Seekonk River from Providence to East Providence, Rhode Island.The original (southern) span was opened on September 25, 1930 as a bascule bridge, replacing an older swing bridge on the site that dated to 1885. It is dedicated to George Washington, the first President of the United States. It linked the old Fox Point Boulevard on the Providence side with the intersection of Warren and Taunton Avenues, both of which still terminate at the East Providence end of the bridge. The four-lane bridge (two lanes in each direction) was marked by four large (approximately 15 ft high by 8 ft wide at the base by 3 ft deep (4.6x2.4x0.9 m)) stone monuments, all having identical bronze dedications to Washington on them. The bridge structure itself, with its stone facade and arches under the roadway, is similar to the Arlington Memorial Bridge in Washington, DC on a shortened scale.
