Columbia Parkway Bridge

Wow, this is a little gem of a crossing hidden in the urban setting of Cincinnati. I been to Cincinnati and never seen this deck truss. It would be easy to miss in the hustle and bustle traffic down there. Good job to the guy who took the pics. The viaduct looks in excellent shape.
