Miriam Turner Overpass

The Miriam Turner Overpass is a major suspension bridge in Grand Theft Auto V and Grand Theft Auto Online, connecting LSIA to the Port of Los Santos.

Description[]

The bridge appears as a single span suspension bridge, carrying four lanes of traffic (2 in either direction) across the harbor serving the Port of Los Santos. It is the only suspension bridge in San Andreas.

It continues on from the La Puerta Freeway in the north west at LSIA, crossing over the harbor, Pier 400 and Elysian Island before continuing on to the Elysian Fields Freeway and the Elysian Fields Freeway Bridge. An off ramp provides access to Elysian Island between the two major bridges.

The bridge is named after Vinewood actress Miriam Turner.

Influence[]

It is based on the Vincent Thomas Bridge, that links San Pedro, Los Angeles with Terminal Island.

Events of Grand Theft Auto V[]

During the mission Father/Son, Michael chases his yacht with Franklin on the Miriam Turner Overpass. Eventually, their car's engine begins to stall, thus making them lose the yacht.

The bridge also appears in the freight method of the mission The Merryweather Heist, where Trevor takes Franklin to the bridge, so Franklin has a vantage point to cover Michael with a Sniper Rifle, while Michael sets three bombs in the Merryweather ship.
