The Robert L.B. Tobin Land Bridge connects both sides of Phil Hardberger Park, which was once divided by Wurzbach Parkway. Spanning 150 feet in width at the top and expanding to 165 feet at its base, this bridge is designed with ample space to accommodate both humans and animals, ensuring a secure crossing.

This Land Bridge harmoniously extends the park's innate beauty, providing a natural continuation of its landscape. For those who traverse it, a unique sensation akin to ascending a hill unfolds, all the while shielded from the hustle and bustle of traffic below.
