This bridge is probably in the worst shape of all the bridges in this county, and is starting to show its age. It doesn’t appear that there is a lot of traffic on the road it serves and may be the reason it hasn’t been as well maintained as some of the other bridges in this county.
Webmaster's note: The photos that were here have been incorporated into the main site.
I managed to get to visit this bridge, on Sunday, June 12, 2016. The road, CR30, from the north is blocked with a large pile of gravel, at its junction with Aylesworth Road. It is possible to park, at the north end, by Aylesworth Road, and walk or cycle the 1/4 mile to the bridge. Also, there are large piles of gravel, to prevent vehicular access, at either end of the bridge. CR 30, because it is blocked off, is starting to get overgrown. The bridge is still intact, but is on poor condition. I took some more recent photo's which are added above.
