White River Bridge
Posted April 21, 2007, by Anthony Dillon (spansaver [at] hotmail [dot] com)

The Smithfield Bridge was built in 1908 by the Indiana Bridge Company of Muncie. It is a 190ft long Warren thru truss with unique portal and sway bracing. The bridge is open and carries a large amount of traffic. It reportedly is scheduled to be bypassed and preserved.
