Bridge Documentation

View Archived National Bridge Inventory Report - Has Additional Details and Evaluation

This is a small concrete arch bridge. It retains good historic integrity including original railings and plaque. A sealant was placed on the bridge some time ago, and this system is beginning to peel off the bridge. The bridge is incorporated into stone abutments of a previous bridge. The Historic Bridge Inventory thought this bridge had been replaced; given Pennsylvania's preservation track record this is not an unreasonable assumption, but in this case, it proved to be an incorrect one. The bridge was still standing as of 2013.

Information and Findings From Pennsylvania's Historic Bridge Inventory

Discussion of Bridge

The deck arch bridge was replaced in 1996.

Discussion of Surrounding Area

The bridge carries a 2 lane road over a stream in a sparsely developed, rural area with scattered 20th century residences and business. The post-1970 era buildings do not appear to have historic district potential.

Bridge Considered Historic By Survey: No
