The Dublin Link is a pedestrian and bicycle bridge over the Scioto River in Dublin, Ohio. The bridge is the only single-tower S-shaped suspension bridge in the world. The bridge connects Dublin's historic district and downtown on the west bank with the Bridge Street District partially complete, on the east bank.
The bridge was originally proposed in 1986, and re-proposed in 2007. After planning, studies, and design efforts, construction began in 2017. The bridge was completed and opened on 17 March 2020, after a planned ceremony on March 13 was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
