Bridge Documentation

This bridge has strong heritage value in conveying this waterway's former navigational use as a canal. The canal has been long-abandoned, and the ruins of locks exist immediately south of this bridge. The bridge itself retains good historic integrity, aside from some loss of operating machinery. A concrete overpass span is to the west. Intermediate steel girder spans are also present. The bridge was built ca. 1915. Lengths given are estimates.
