Key Bridge

Arlington Memorial bridge is an unmarked location in Fallout 3.

Layout
The Arlington Memorial bridge is the bridge that crosses the Potomac River north of Jefferson Memorial, from the Citadel in the direction of Washington Monument. It is in a severe state of decay, and contains numerous ruined vehicles top-side.

Below the bridge to the west, there is a raider encampment, while on the eastern side, there is a scavenger under the bridge that you can trade with. On the eastern side there is also a super mutant base near the Irradiated Metro.

Notable loot

 * North of the bridge, east end, between the scavenger and raider camp, is a grave with search party log #3 for the Searching for Cheryl unmarked quest.

 * Take it Back!
 * Protecting the Water Way (with Broken Steel)

Bugs

 * An Enclave soldier may spawn in the water at the east side of the bridge. Because there is no suitable place for him to exit the water nearby, the soldier will simply stare at you from the water until you shoot him, in which he dives down into the water, and pops back up a few seconds later.

Appearances
Arlington Memorial bridge appears only in Fallout 3.
