B. Edward Tankersley Memorial Bridge

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Non-notable US highway bridge. The source in the article is a federal government bridge inventory, so it would likely be considered a primary source. This is primary source government legislation naming the bridge. It's not terribly uncommon for local/state governments in the US to officially name roadway structures; even nondescript highway overpasses can have names. Beyond that, I'm mostly getting mirrors and a handful of routine clickbait geography pages. When the creek the bridge crosses is so small it's a redlink, then it kinda says something about the bridge. Hog Farm Bacon 15:31, 29 August 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete Fails WP:GNG and is not notable per WP:NBUILD. In my search, I could only find the legislation listed by the nom. Google, JSTOR, ProQuest, Gale Academic OneFile, and NYT did not return results. Z1720 (talk) 17:13, 29 August 2020 (UTC)
 * oh, for Pete's sake, delete Named after an unremarkable county sheriff, it's a two lane plate girder thing of which there must be hundreds of thousands if not millions in the US. Frankly, I don't think simply naming a bridge makes it notable, but in any case the sheer ordinariness of this shows WP:NOTINHERITED in spades. Mangoe (talk) 14:33, 31 August 2020 (UTC)
