== Cultural Significance == The Benjamin Franklin Bridge appears in countless images of Philadelphia, its towers and cables forming an instantly recognizable backdrop to the waterfront. The bridge has featured in films, photographs, and artwork depicting the city. Annual events including New Year's Eve fireworks use the bridge as a visual focal point.<ref name="drpa"/> The pedestrian walkway enables recreational use, with runners, cyclists, and walkers crossing between Philadelphia and Camden. Views from the walkway encompass the Philadelphia skyline, Camden waterfront, and Delaware River traffic. This public access distinguishes the bridge from crossings limited to vehicles.<ref name="drpa"/>
