Bridge Documentation

This bridge is noted for its uncommon and large Baltimore truss spans. The bridge is at risk for demolition and replacement, although as of 2020, plans may be five years out. It would be nice to see the bridge left in place for pedestrian traffic next to a replacement bridge which could carry the decent amount of truck traffic that this bridge currently carries. Lengths given are extremely rough estimates. The bridge is reportedly the oldest bridge over this river today.
