Lake Mead, Interstate 11, US 93 route
The Mike O'Callaghan–Pat Tillman Memorial Bridge is an arch bridge in the United States that spans the Colorado River between the states of Arizona and Nevada. The bridge is located within the Lake Mead National Recreation Area approximately 30 miles (48 km) southeast of Las Vegas, and carries U.S. Route 93 over the Colorado River. Opened in 2010, it was the key component of the Hoover Dam Bypass project, which rerouted US 93 from its previous routing along the top of Hoover Dam and removed several hairpin turns and blind curves from the route. It is jointly named for Mike O'Callaghan, Governor of Nevada from 1971–1979, and Pat Tillman, an American football player who left his career with the Arizona Cardinals to enlist in the United States Army and was later killed in Afghanistan by friendly fire.
As early as the 1960s, officials identified the US 93 route over Hoover Dam to be dangerous and inadequate for projected traffic volumes. From 1998–2001, officials from Arizona, Nevada, and several federal government agencies collaborated to determine the best routing for an alternative river crossing. In March 2001, the Federal Highway Administration selected the route, which crosses the Colorado River approximately 1,500 feet (460 m) downstream of Hoover Dam. Construction of the bridge approaches began in 2003, and construction of the bridge itself began in February 2005. The bridge was completed in 2010 and the entire bypass route opened to vehicle traffic on October 19, 2010. The Hoover Dam Bypass project was completed within budget at a cost of $240 million; the bridge portion cost $114 million.[4]
The bridge was the first concrete-steel composite arch bridge built in the United States,[5] and incorporates the widest concrete arch in the Western Hemisphere. At 890 feet (270 m) above the Colorado River, it is the second highest bridge in the United States after the Royal Gorge Bridge, and is the world's highest concrete arch bridge.[6]
Upon the completion of the Boulder City Bypass, the bridge has become a part of Interstate 11, concurrent with US 93.

DAM GOOD - ARIZONA to NEVADA - LAS VEGAS - THE HOOVER DAM & NEW BRIDGE - HD
My friend Snickers came to Las Vegas and wanted to see the Hoover Dam. This is his first impressions of the Hoover Dam are captured in this epic dam crossing. Our friend Wayne was supposed to pick us up at the other end but when we got there we started searching for him with no luck and out of no where he appeared. The rest is history. I hope you enjoy watching. We had a lot of dam fun.
The dam is located 30 miles southeast of Las Vegas. Take US Highway 93 to Nevada State Route 172. The dam is on the Nevada-Arizona border.
The Bureau of Reclamation has conducted tours through the Hoover Dam and powerplant since 1937. Today, close to 1,000,000 visitors a year take the tour and millions more drive across the dam.
I shot this with my Panasonic HPX170 and edited in IMovie.
Thank you for watching. Have an amazing day.

My Family goes to hoover dam (2019)
Hoover Dam is a concrete arch-gravity dam in the Black Canyon of the Colorado River, on the border between the U.S. states of Nevada and Arizona. It was constructed between 1931 and 1936 during the Great Depression and was dedicated on September 30, 1935, by President Franklin D. Roosevelt. Its construction was the result of a massive effort involving thousands of workers, and cost over one hundred lives. Originally known as Boulder Dam from 1933, it was officially renamed Hoover Dam, for President Herbert Hoover, by a joint resolution of Congress in 1947.
Since about 1900, the Black Canyon and nearby Boulder Canyon had been investigated for their potential to support a dam that would control floods, provide irrigation water and produce hydroelectric power. In 1928, Congress authorized the project. The winning bid to build the dam was submitted by a consortium called Six Companies, Inc., which began construction of the dam in early 1931. Such a large concrete structure had never been built before, and some of the techniques were unproven. The torrid summer weather and lack of facilities near the site also presented difficulties. Nevertheless, Six Companies turned the dam over to the federal government on March 1, 1936, more than two years ahead of schedule.
Hoover Dam impounds Lake Mead, the largest reservoir in the United States by volume (when it is full).[6] The dam is located near Boulder City, Nevada, a municipality originally constructed for workers on the construction project, about 30 mi (48 km) southeast of Las Vegas, Nevada. The dam's generators provide power for public and private utilities in Nevada, Arizona, and California. Hoover Dam is a major tourist attraction; nearly a million people tour the dam each year. The heavily traveled U.S. Route 93 (US 93) ran along the dam's crest until October 2010, when the Hoover Dam Bypass opened.

The World's Biggest Arch Bridge - Hoover Dam Bridge
Before the construction of the 635 m bridge, better known as The Mike O’Callaghan-Pat Tillman Memorial Bridge, travellers on Route 93 between Arizona and Nevada crossed the Colorado River on the Hoover Dam itself, via a congested, two-lane road coupled with tight bends, high winds and poor visibility. With a rapid population growth and tourism, the result was massive traffic snarl-ups and other road hazards. The bridge rises 293 m over the Colorado River, making it the second-highest bridge in the U.S.A.
Construction began in 2005 and completed in October 2010, coinciding with the 75th anniversary of Hoover Dam.
Two construction companies from California, the Obayashi Corporation from San Francisco and PSM Construction USA from Brisbane were involved in the construction of the bridge. Two 110 m towers suspended each end of the 833 m cableway, and a custom remote-controlled trolley system travelled on the 7.6 cm diameter cables to transport, hoist and position individual concrete bridge sections.
The bridge was the first concrete-steel arch composite bridge built in the United States, and its twin-ribbed arch is the widest of its kind in the Western Hemisphere. Forming a 353 m long, 92 m-deep arch, the two Archs are joined laterally by Vierendeel steel trusses that add seismic protection. Each Arch comprises more than 50 sections of concrete, each measuring 8 m. Eight concrete vertical pillars support the bridge deck above the arch structure, and a total of 36 steel girders weighing in at 45 metric tonnes support the whole structure.
The bridge measures a total of 635 m, making it the longest single-arch bridge in North America. A pedestrian walk on the north side provides tourists with the only way to see Hoover Dam from the bridge itself as well as an array of descriptive plaques about the project and its environment. Although various delays and a major equipment mishap added to the time delays, the project was within its $240 million budget.
The project was not without incidences. The bridge claimed the death of one worker during construction but suicides from pedestrians however continue to pose a growing concern to the bridge administration officials, who are evaluating design modifications to prevent future occurrences.
The Mike O’Callaghan-Pat Tillman Memorial Bridge honors icons of public service selected by the states of Nevada and Arizona. Donal Neil “Mike” O’Callaghan was a decorated Korean War veteran who lost the partial use of a leg in the war. He was Nevada’s Governor for two terms between the year 1971-1979. He later took up a career in newspaper journalism. Patrick Daniel Tillman was a world renowned sportsman in American football, first at Arizona State University and later with the Arizona Cardinals. In the wake of the wake of the 9/11, he decided to join the U.S. army but unfortunately in 2004 was killed in Afghanistan at age 27.

Hoover Dam Bypass (Hwy 93 NV)
Sightseen across the new Hoover Dam bypass bridge
The Largest Concrete Dam in the US - The Hoover Dam (720p)
This engineering technology video depicts the United States built Hoover Dam. Its design was impressive, once known as Boulder Dam and designed in concrete, known in physics as a arch-gravity dam. Its located in the Black Canyon of the Colorado River, on the border between the U.S. states of Nevada and Arizona. It took 5 years to construct, between 1931 &1936 during the Great Depression, and was dedicated on September 30, 1935, by President Franklin D. Roosevelt. Its construction was the result of a massive effort of design, involving thousands of workers, and cost over one hundred lives at a financial building cost of $49 million ($836 million adjusted for inflation). It gets its common name from President Herbert Hoover who commissioned the United States Federal Government project.
The largest hydroelectric technology plant in the United States is at Grand Coulee Dam. Its three power plants have a capacity of 6,809 MW, and it generates, on average, about 21 billion KWh, while Hoover Dam's power plant has a capacity of 2,074 MW and generates approximately 4 billion KWh a year.
Such a large concrete structure had never been built before, and some of designs and techniques were all but theory at the time.
Hoover Dam impounds Lake Mead, the largest reservoir in the United States by volume. The dam is located near Boulder City, Nevada, a municipality originally constructed for workers on the construction project, about 30 mi (48 km) southeast of Las Vegas, Nevada. The dam's generators provide power for public and private utilities in Nevada, Arizona, and California. Hoover Dam is a major tourist attraction; nearly a million people tour the dam each year. The heavily traveled U.S. 93 ran along the dam's crest until October 2010, when the Hoover Dam Bypass opened.
