The former dual (now single) tracks run southeast to northwest. County Highway DJ comes from the north, turns sharply to the southwest to go under the tracks (shown here) and intersects with Clymet Road. Hwy DJ turns to the south while Clymet Road runs parallel to the tracks briefly, then heads west.

Looking North

The Scofield Bridge has been completely obliterated. There is absolutely no trace that there was ever a bridge here, except for a barracade at the end of Scofield Road.

The End

This is the end of Scofield Road. There is absolutely no trace of the old road on the north end of the bridge site. Without the HAER photos, no one would believe there was ever a historic bridge at this location.

Mfg Plaque

This plaque belies the listed 1926 build date, as the remains of the plaque shows a date of 1911. It further identifies the bridge as a product of the American Bridge Company...unless it's another one from the BP&I Company.

South Face

This is a short stretch of highway (about a mile) that carries Wisconsin Highways 26 and 60 concurrently. Westbound 60 turns south, about a quarter mile north of the bridge, then turns west about three quarters of a mile south of the bridge. It is, therefore, a very busy stretch of highway and has been for a very long time. The highway is very narrow below the bridge.
