The Verrazano Bridge in Maryland is a bridge on Maryland Route 611[2] over Sinepuxent Bay that connects Assateague Island to the mainland.[3]

The crossing, built in 1964,[4] contains two spans, one carrying automobiles and the other carrying pedestrians and bicycles.[5][3] It is owned by Maryland, not by the National Park Service.[6] NPS, however, does own part of Assateague Island.[7]
