The Galveston Causeway, connecting the island to the mainland, has evolved significantly since its first railroad bridge in 1860. The current vehicle causeway, built between 2003 and 2008, stands beside a historic 1912 causeway still in use for rail traffic. The 1912 causeway was a major milestone for Galveston, facilitating both rail and automobile travel, and is now listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
