The Veterans Memorial Centennial Bridge (formerly known as the Bennett Bay Centennial Bridge) is a freeway bridge in Idaho. The bridge carries Interstate 90 over a valley above Bennett Bay, an arm of Lake Coeur d'Alene. Construction of the bridge began in 1988 and used a balanced cantilever to build sections at an average rate of 16 ft a week. It was completed in 1991 and opened the following year as part of the last major project to complete Interstate 90 east of Coeur d'Alene, at a cost of $16 million. The bridge was initially named the Bennett Bay Centennial Bridge, to commemorate the centennial of Idaho, despite a long-standing state policy against adopting official bridge names. In 1992, the bridge was renamed the Veterans Memorial Centennial Bridge, in honor of Idaho's military veterans. The bridge is a segmental concrete box girder bridge; it is 1730 ft long, 70 ft wide, and carries four traffic lanes 300 ft above the valley floor. It was designed by HNTB.
