Description
"The 2-span Warren with verticals pony truss bridge is of riveted construction. Spans have 4 panels each. The east abutment is stone and the west abutment and pier are concrete dating from 1969. The wide profile floorbeams appear to be original and are attached with some square-nut bolts. This bridge of undocumented age replaced an 1899 Pratt pony truss by the WIBC."Facts
