The '''Ronald Kirk Bridge''' is a pedestrian [[footbridge]] over the [[Trinity River (Texas)|Trinity River]] in Dallas, [[Texas]]. It connects [[Downtown Dallas]] and [[West Dallas]], paralleling the 2012 [[Margaret Hunt Hill Bridge]] for vehicles, and the 1930 [[Texas and Pacific Railway]] Trinity River Bridge.
== History ==
Constructed as the Lamar-McKinney Viaduct in 1933, the original road bridge was built to carry vehicles across the periodically swelling [[Trinity River (Texas)|Trinity River]] to West Dallas. It was completed 27 years after the river's 1908 flood that submerged most of the area.
The bridge was renamed the Ronald Kirk Bridge in 2016 from its former name, the Continental Avenue Bridge. It was renamed in honor of the first African-American mayor of Dallas, Ronald Kirk.<ref>{{cite web|title=Fox 4 News-Dallas Bridge Named for Former Mayor Ron Kirk|url=http://www.fox4news.com/news/152921363-story|accessdate=7 July 2016}}</ref>
===Restoration===
The bridge had fallen into a state of disrepair by 2010, when plans were being developed to reconstruct Continental Avenue and the bridge. During the reconstruction of the bridge it was decided that there was no need for it to carry vehicular traffic, since the nearby [[Margaret Hunt Hill Bridge]] was completed in 2012 to do so. The design as a footbridge complemented the nearby open park plan for [[Klyde Warren Park]], as a recreation amenity.<ref>{{cite web|title=KERA News-'It's Fabulous:' Dallas' Continental Bridge Reopens As A Park -- No Cars Allowed|url=http://keranews.org/post/its-fabulous-dallas-continental-bridge-reopens-park-no-cars-allowed|accessdate=17 June 2014}}</ref>
The Ronald Kirk Bridge reopened on Sunday, June 15, 2014 (Father's Day). It opened with a playground, a splash park, lounge chairs, human-sized chess boards, and a ceiling of cloth to shade the area, along with many trails surrounding the bridge in the Trinity River Basin and on the levees.<ref>{{cite web|title=Dallas Morning News-All-day party celebrates Continental bridge reopening|url=http://www.dallasnews.com/news/community-news/best-southwest/headlines/20140615-all-day-party-celebrates-continental-bridge-reopening.ece|accessdate=17 June 2014}}</ref>

It connects <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Downtown_Dallas" title="Downtown Dallas">Downtown Dallas</a> and <a href="/enwiki/wiki/West_Dallas" title="West Dallas">West Dallas</a>, paralleling the 2012 <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Margaret_Hunt_Hill_Bridge" title="Margaret Hunt Hill Bridge">Margaret Hunt Hill Bridge</a> for vehicles, and the 1930 <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Texas_and_Pacific_Railway" title="Texas and Pacific Railway">Texas and Pacific Railway</a> Trinity River Bridge.</p>

<p>Constructed as the Lamar-McKinney Viaduct in 1933, the original road bridge was built to carry vehicles across the periodically swelling <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Trinity_River_(Texas)" title="Trinity River (Texas)">Trinity River</a> to West Dallas. It was completed 27 years after the river's 1908 flood that submerged most of the area.</p>
<p>The bridge was renamed the Ronald Kirk Bridge in 2016 from its former name, the Continental Avenue Bridge. It was renamed in honor of the first African-American mayor of Dallas, Ronald Kirk.<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1">[1]</a></sup></p>

<p>The bridge had fallen into a state of disrepair by 2010, when plans were being developed to reconstruct Continental Avenue and the bridge. During the reconstruction of the bridge it was decided that there was no need for it to carry vehicular traffic, since the nearby <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Margaret_Hunt_Hill_Bridge" title="Margaret Hunt Hill Bridge">Margaret Hunt Hill Bridge</a> was completed in 2012 to do so. The design as a footbridge complemented the nearby open park plan for <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Klyde_Warren_Park" title="Klyde Warren Park">Klyde Warren Park</a>, as a recreation amenity.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2">[2]</a></sup></p>
<p>The Ronald Kirk Bridge reopened on Sunday, June 15, 2014 (Father's Day). It opened with a playground, a splash park, lounge chairs, human-sized chess boards, and a ceiling of cloth to shade the area, along with many trails surrounding the bridge in the Trinity River Basin and on the levees.<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3">[3]</a></sup></p>
