Great example of a cable-stayed bridge. Beautifully designed. Looks cool lit up at night.

Similar to a bridge from back home called the The Kosciusko bridge minus the colorful lights at night.

Such a beautiful bridge but the shoulder is garbage. I rode on it and coming down on a bicycle at 29 mph I hit some wood and the bump/shock made one of my bottles fell off my bike and I did not get the bottle back and was with too many people going too fast on too steep an incline to do anything. I love the uphill being a slow uphill rather than a steep and enjoy the blast of speed I get on the downhill. The road is beautiful and is worthy of tourism but the shoulder is littered and Baytown needs to do something about it.

Lived in Baytown went over this bridge often. Great bridge but when it’s windy you can feel the bridge move. Scary feeling!

This is a cable-stayed bridge, a modern day design of bridge. Somewhat looking scary but its sturdy and strong.

I guess its a nice spot to fish under plus its nice bridge to cross when Im pulling the boat to get there.

On they way to 225 there is a massive speed bump for some reason. OUCH! Poor vehicles. Only way to avoid it, is to go to the left lane.

Nice and beautiful bridge love seeing it lit at night and nice bridge to cross when heading to Baytown and La Porte!

It’s a bridge. It works, it doesn’t break when you drive over it. Looks pretty cool I guess.

10/10, would jump again.

Finally visited the bridge I Inspected while working for TXDOT when I was in high school... Class of 1995...23 years later and I am grateful to have seen it and able to drive over it...

Beautiful bridge...

This bridge is the best! I use to watch the boat pass by

Beautiful Bridge!

I lived in Baytown for years worked at old Gulf coast Hospital and loved hearing the stories of Mr Hartman and the bridge. Baytown was a good place to live.

Travel this bridge every Monday through Friday early morning most beautiful sunrisesj

Seems like a pretty good bridge, very functional for getting across the ship channel twice a day on my travels. works great unless it gets icy and they close it.

If it were still the tunnel from my childhood it would definitely rate 5 stars...

Quite a nice bridge. Clean easy road with an amazing gables stretching outwards to the sky. Enough room in the lanes with a shoulder. The clean white lines of this bridge is a superber entrance to the city ahead. Easy to navigate and well lit. Takes ride across this beauty.

When I first moved to Houston I was surprised to find a bridge as large as the Fred Hartman between Baytown and La Porte. This bridge is quite high and I think its second after the Rainbow Bridge in Bridge City, TX. Nonetheless, this is a great place for photos or just to drive over if youre in the area. My only complaint is that at night the only lighting is in a boring orange which almost makes this landmark disappear against a skyline of oil refineries. It would be nice to see the Hartman light up in a different color, just sayin.

As far as bridges go, it stayed UP the entire crossing, never swayed, everyone stayed on the side they belonged...so yeah awesome

I love driving on this bridge, its way better than that stupid Toll Bridge and best of all, theres no charge! Feel free to drive across this beautiful bridge as many times as you want, it is even more beautiful at night. No doubt the best bridge in Texas!

Nice and large view when go down, feeling well and we are so small in the earth.

Never submitted a review on a bridge before but here goes... The bridge is fairly new and does its job. The design of the bridge is beautiful and at night even more so. The lighting is a great enhancement and makes the bridge pop in the sea of smokestacks and cranes around it. Hopefully the bridge over the port for the beltway will be similar.

This bridge is very beautiful at night when it is all lit up.

There are hippies hanging from this bridge. It’s hilarious. Aside from the car accident they caused this morning it has been a source of amusement on my Thursday commute.

Beautiful design. At night I love the way the lights shine upwards, makes the poles seem light their glowing.

This is a beautiful bridge and the views are amazing.

Its ok but sometimes the traffic is a night mare when their accidents

Just a cool looking bridge

Awesome sight. Drove over during a rainstorm. His beauty shone through.

Its a lot faster but I still miss the old tunnel

Well constructed. Easy on and off ramps

It is rare to have stopped traffic going this route for my commute. Use this bridge 5 days a week and its always moving. They do escort crane trucks and an occasional wide thru which will slow it down.

Wonderful memorizing ride day or night

So this bridge was named after Fred Hartman he was an editor for the Baytown Sun. 77th largest bridge in the world, largest cable stayed bridge in Texas and a price tag of $91.25 million!!

It looks wonderful:)

Its a bridge ..what csn you like about it

Great bridge. Nice views. Takes you where you need to go.

Best way to get from Baytown to La Porte

Great view of the Houston Ship Channel.

This is a awesome site !!

Really cool to make a trip over this bridge! I wish there was a seperate biking and walking lane to enjoy it outside of a vehicle and take in the sights of it!

This is a beautiful architecture

Beautiful bridge!

This bridge is a bridge i do not like :/

Driving across this bridge is the only thing that makes going to work bearable. 10/10 recommend

Baytown/Laporte

None of the pictures reflect the slope very well. Tall bridge for span length.

Its a bridge over the water! It has a place to drive your vehicle. It is open at night too. You can drive up one side and down the other. Normal traffic laws apply.

Beautiful bridge. Though access, hard to get a good view

Beautiful view, just has weird smell at times

This bridge is the most elegant and stable bridge Ive ever slept under in my 27 year career as an archaeologist. If you look closely enough sometimes youll find dolphins.Thanks for your read of my review.

Its a great way to get across the water.

Beautiful bridge...

Nice Bridge!

Its always something fun to do when youre low on funds and in the mood for a little urban exploration. Its striking during the day but absolutely beautiful when itslit up in the evening.

Love this bridge!

As we approached a large seemingly unpassable body of water on the highway, this magnificent bridge allowed us to pass over it with ease. I wont be swimming out of my submerged car today I tell you!

I drive across it every night,I deliver medication from Pearland and as far as Beaumont. At first I was afraid,now I love the experience Everytime I cross it

Well built.

Beautiful.

Fast moving

Iconic at night

Wowwww!!! The best bridge that I have been on yet.

Every day I drive on this bridge back and forth. Clean, easy going very good

Awesome bridge. Illuminates gold when the sun sets

Love that bridge

Beautiful bridge on our route to Johnson Space Center.

I take the back route from Spring, TX to Kemah or Galveston so I can drive on the Fred Hartman bridge. Its such a beautiful site in day & at night...

Love this bridge it is such a beautiful Bridge, it just amazes me every time I drive over this one.
