Opened October 22, 2016, Big River Crossing is the longest public pedestrian/bike bridge across the Mississippi River, providing dramatic views of its ever-changing landscape. By connecting Main Streets in Memphis and West Memphis, this two-state bridge ties together urban, rural, and natural areas and gives users recreation options unique to each setting.

The bridge leads directly to Ducks Unlimited Park in the floodplains of West Memphis, Arkansas with paved trails and stunning views of the Memphis skyline.
