Description: The Jubilee Parkway, also known as the "Bayway," is a significant infrastructure feature in Alabama, spanning approximately 7.5 miles across the northern part of Mobile Bay. This twin-span bridge, part of Interstate 10, connects the eastern shore cities of Daphne and Spanish Fort with the city of Mobile, facilitating a crucial transportation link for both local commuters and interstate travelers. Opened in 1978, the bridge is named after the natural phenomenon known as a "jubilee," where marine life such as crabs, shrimp, and fish swarm the shallow waters of the bay, making them easy to catch. The Jubilee Parkway is not only vital for daily transit but also plays a critical role in the region's economy and emergency evacuation routes, underscoring its importance to the Gulf Coast infrastructure.
