We are in the St Petersburg area and will be heading to southwest FL. Going by way of this bridge is the shortest route, we are travelling in a motorhome w toad. FWIW, I have gone across the new Tappen Zee bridge.
Just looking for others' experience, we arrived by I 275 and came across that part of Tampa Bay on a causeway.

We always just stay on 75 straight through....but we are going up 75 already. If that’s the shortest route I would take it unless you are scared of bridges like ick Russell from Rhe Gypsy Nournal is.

We’ve gone over that bridge with our 40’ 5th Wheel - no trouble at all.

Thanks, I had looked at pics of the bridge and it looked "bigger" than it wound up feeling. Actually turned out nice, there is a rest area on the south side so we stopped and took in a nice view after crossing.

Only trouble I have on bridges is rubbernecking too much!
