Teche Bayou Bridge No. 3
Posted March 27, 2008, by Patrick Sparks (psparks [at] sparksengineering [dot] com)

This bridge is known as the Vida Shaw bridge. It has a steel truss superstructure with timber pile substrucure. It is on a low volume rural road. Temporarily closed in 2007 due to condition of the substructure at abutments.
