The Lake Como–Hancock Bridge, commonly referred to as the Hancock Bridge is a series of two bridges crossing the east and west branches of the Delaware River after the river splits at Hancock, New York. Originally, both the west branch and east branch bridges were truss bridges. However, the east branch bridge was replaced by a girder bridge in 2005.
