Located in the town of Oelwein, this steel stringer bridge crosses Charles Street.
Built in approximately 1900, the bridge features a pair of concrete encased beam spans. These spans sit on concrete and stone substructures.
The subway here was built to provide a route for cars under the rail yard above. Currently, the bridge is owned by the D&W Railroad.
Overall, the bridge appears to be in poor condition. While one face of the bridge has been replaced, the remainder of the bridge is a dark and narrow underpass.
The author has ranked this bridge as being locally significant, due to the common design.
