The George Washington Bridge spans approximately 4,760 feet, which is about 1.5 miles. This iconic bridge connects Fort Lee, New Jersey, to Washington Heights in New York City and is one of the busiest in the world.
To break it down further, the main span of the bridge itself is 4,760 feet long, but when you consider the approach roads and ramps, the total distance from end to end can give a varied measurement. The bridge has a significant historical and architectural importance, serving as a vital transportation link across the Hudson River.
