Lincoln Creek Bridge
Posted May 5, 2013, by Jimmy Roland (mrciviljim [at] hotmail [dot] com)

The original bridge is the arch section. The rigid frame arch of the original was retained with cast in place frame added to the south end. This wasl also done with the structure down stream on Lincoln Creek but a Conspan arch was used to mimic the original structure.
