Bodine's Bridge carries NY 211 across the Wallkill River, a mile (1.6 km) south (west by the highway's signed direction) of the village of Montgomery, New York, USA, near Orange County Airport. At 340 feet (103 m) in length, the steel through truss is the longest bridge along Route 211.

The current bridge was built in 1933, and reconstructed in 1970. It took its name from its predecessors, which in turn were named after nearby, still-standing Bodine's Tavern, a popular rest stop on the early 19th century Minisink to Montgomery Turnpike, which later became Route 211. The house was built near a popular ford along the river, which the bridges were built over.

Due to the bridge's location in the river's flood plain, it is often closed after heavy rains when its approaches, particularly to the south, are overrun by rising waters. This happened most recently during the April 2007 Nor'easter.cite press release | title = Flood Watch Downgraded to Flood Warning and List of Road Closures| publisher =Orange County | date = | url = 2007-04-16| format = | language =English | accessdate =2007-07-10 | quote ='Route 211 and E Kaisertown', 'Canning Road and Route 416'.
