Bonner Bridge

Oregon Inlet, NC

Project Description

The Hebert C. Bonner Bridge extends 2.5 miles, spanning the Oregon Inlet along North Carolina's Outer Banks. It joins the Pamlico Sound with the Atlantic Ocean and separates Bodie Island from Pea Island. As one of the few access points to the ocean along this stretch of coast, Oregon Inlet is a major departure point for charter fishing trips, with a nearby harbor serving as the base for many large boats that travel miles out towards the Gulf Stream almost every day.
