View Heritage Bridge Inventory Sheet For This Bridge

This highway used to be King's Highway 9. Along this stretch of road, the Conestogo River winds back and forth resulting in four bridges along this stretch of road. Three of them are concrete rigid-frame bridges and the fourth is a concrete arch bridge. All are noted for retaining their original railings. The concrete arch bridge is an uncommon example of a concrete arch bridge in Ontario. The bridges feature a concrete balustrade railing that was a standard for a brief period of time. In only a year or two after these bridges were built, Ontario switched away from using these railings and utilized an ornamental steel railing, which also enjoyed popularity for many decades.

This arch bridge is in worse condition than the rigid-frame bridges. It suffers from extensive concrete spalling on the arch. Also, some of the railings were destroyed presumably by a vehicular collision. Undoubtedly in response to this, concrete barriers have been placed on the bridge in front of the original railing.
