The Frank E. Bauer Bridge is 0.19 mile (0.31 km) toll bridge that traverses the Rock River in Machesney Park, Illinois. [cite web |author=Federal Highway Administration |url=http://www.fhwa.dot.gov/ohim/tollpage/t1part2.htm |title=Non-Interstate System Toll Bridges and Tunnels (...as of January 1, 2005) |accessdate=2006-11-15 |date=2005-12-19] It is one of four toll bridges in the state of Illinois. The bridge consists of four lanes, a median and shoulders, as well as a sidewalk which is not tolled. It connects Illinois Route 2 north of Rockford, Illinois with commercial areas of Machesney Park and Illinois Route 251 via the Bauer Parkway and Harlem Road (Winnebago County Highway 25).

The bridge opened in 1993. As of 2006, the toll for all vehicles was 50 cents per vehicle, payable only in coins or tokens. I-Pass, the Illinois State Toll Highway Authority's electronic toll collection system, is not accepted due to the large upfront costs of installing I-PASS at the bridge. The Bauer Bridge is tolled to pay for bonds issued for its construction, scheduled to be repaid by 2013.
