Bridge Documentation

View Historic Bridge Inventory Sheet For This Bridge

This abandoned bridge is noted for its variety of span types. It includes an impressive pin-connected Pennsylvania truss span, with a pin-connected Pratt through truss approach span at the southeastern end, and a rivet-connected Warren pony truss at the northwestern end.

The bridge was bypassed and abandoned in 1962. The deck no longer remains, and there originally must have been additional approach spans and/or earthen approaches for this bridge which are gone now, as the ends of the bridge seen today are quite high up.
