55 ft closed
17th Street Causeway Bridge
Approximate 55 ft closed clearance at 17th Street Causeway — which hulls pass, which wait on the tender, and the run to Port Everglades.
21 ft closed
Andrews Avenue Bridge
Andrews Avenue on the New River sits near 21 ft closed. Tower-up convertibles die here. Express hulls and laid towers are a different conversation.
Bridge
Commercial Boulevard Bridge
Commercial Boulevard over the ICW sits near 15 ft closed — a harder air-draft kill than Oakland Park’s ~25 ft for programs running north of Coral Ridge toward Hillsboro.
4 ft closed
FEC Railroad Bridge
The FEC railroad span downtown is about 4 ft when down. It is a schedule, not a yacht clearance. West of Andrews is a train problem as much as a steel problem.
31 ft closed
Las Olas Boulevard Bridge (ICW)
The Las Olas ICW span sits near 31 ft closed — enough for many flybridges, not enough for a full tuna tower left standing on Nurmi or Hendricks.
9 ft closed
Las Olas Boulevard at Fiesta Way
The fixed Las Olas span at Fiesta Way is about 9 ft. Cabin yachts die. This is a dinghy and center-console cut, not a convertible neighborhood entrance.
12 ft closed
Las Olas Boulevard at Hendricks Isle
Hendricks Isle’s boulevard span is about 12 ft. Pair it with the 6.5 ft south-finger shoal — air draft is only half the overlay on this island.
14 ft closed
Las Olas Boulevard at Idlewyld
Idlewyld’s boulevard span is about 14 ft — more air than Fiesta Way, still a flybridge killer. Depth on the fingers is about 8–8.5 ft.
12 ft closed
Las Olas Boulevard at Isle of Venice
The Las Olas boulevard span on Isle of Venice is about 12 ft. Convertibles and flybridges do not use this cut. T-tops and low expresses still measure twice.
25 ft closed
Oakland Park Boulevard Bridge
Oakland Park Boulevard on the ICW is about 25 ft closed and sits on the Coral Ridge approach. Pair it with 5.5 ft finger depths — air draft is only half the overlay.
16 ft closed
SE 3rd Avenue Bridge
SE 3rd Avenue is the sixteen-foot closed gate into downtown Fort Lauderdale. Flybridges and towers do not live here. Drawbridge schedule is not a lifestyle.
25 ft closed
Sunrise Boulevard Bridge
Sunrise Boulevard over the ICW is about 25 ft closed. North-of-Sunrise programs (Coral Ridge approach) inherit this air draft before Oakland Park.
