The Memorial Bridge, locally known as the toll bridge, crosses the Ohio River connecting Belpre, Ohio and Parkersburg, West Virginia. The bridge is an alternate route to access U.S. Route 50 in Ohio from central Parkersburg.

While some internal WVDOT documents refer to the bridge as West Virginia Route 140,[1] the number is not signed nor shown on state-issued maps.[2]

The bridge was completed c. 1954, and is of a steel truss design. It accommodates two lanes of traffic, one in either direction.

This bridge has a toll for passenger cars of $0.50; travelers may also purchase tickets to reduce the toll from $0.50 to $0.40 per trip when $2.00 worth are purchased. There are no automatic lanes and E-ZPass is not accepted.
