The Henry J. James Harbor Bridge (known locally as the James Bridge or Harbor Bridge) is a bridge spanning Ivalion Harbor in Califia, Ivalice. The direct road connection between downtown Ivalion and its northern suburbs, it carries about 482,000 vehicles daily on its upper deck. Three Ivalion Metro lines use the bridge's lower level. It was conceived as a replacement for slow, limited auto ferry services across the harbor, and is a centerpiece of north Califia's car culture.
Landings[]
The bridge connects Ocean Vista Park at the north end of Downtown Ivalion with South Contra Costa, located directly north across the mouth of the Ivalion Harbor. At the south end, the lower deck subway enters a tunnel to serve James Bridge station of Ivalion Metro, while the upper deck empties past the park onto Dalton Avenue. At the north end, the lower deck subway continues at grade to South Contra Costa station and the upper deck continues as Dalton Parkway towards the center of Contra Costa.
