This common Deck Girder bridge over the East Channel of Big Bull Falls is a standard bridge.
Built in 1913, this three span structure was built to replace an 1890 truss, which had served its useful life. It is unknown if the old truss was moved to a new location after replacement. The two deck girders rest on stone and concrete substructures.
Overall, the bridge remains in good condition. In 2018, the river below is a favorite of kayaks.
The author has ranked this bridge as locally significant, due to the common design.
The photo above is an overview. The bridge can be accessed from a parallel road.
