View Information About HSR Ratings
This bridge and the road it carries is a former state highway, SR-303. Today, the road and bridge are owned by the county. The bridge with its two lanes and heavy trusses following a state-standard design are a visible clue to this road's past as a more significant state route.
The deck was replaced and other repairs completed shortly after HistoricBridges.org documented the bridge in 2016.
