Bridge Documentation

This bridge is an example of a state standard through truss bridge in Texas, and includes a series of approach spans as well.

The Houston Structural Steel Company, owned and operated by the Mosher Steel & Machinery Company of Dallas, fabricated the steel for the bridge. Steel was sourced from multiple mills: Carnegie brands are visible on the gusset plates of the bridge and other members display Bethlehem brands.
