This diagram should help viewers interpret the descriptions of the photos on this page. The different sections of the bridge are drawn and labeled, with those sections that were demolished and not present when this bridge was photodocumented shown highlighted in red. The orange section shows where the bridge's north approach was added, which today is part of the main bridge and the primary means of crossing the bridge.
