The 4 mile (6.4 km) St. George Island Bridge (designated State Road 300 from end to end, plus approaches) was built in 2002 (completed in 2004) when the two original bridges (cut by an island in the middle) that led to St. George Island, a small resort town 10 miles (16 km) from Apalachicola, Florida were deemed unsafe due to their old age. The new bridge, by bypassing the middle island, became the 3rd longest bridge in Florida. The north end of SR 300 is at US 98 (SR 30) in Eastpoint.
