Located west of Lanark, this deck girder bridge crosses Carroll Creek near US-52/IL-64.
Built in approximately 1920, the bridge features a pair of short deck girder spans. These spans are set onto stone and concrete substructures.
While the bridge was originally built for two tracks, the former eastbound track has been removed. It is believed that the second track was removed after 1980.
Overall, the bridge appears to be in good condition. It is unknown if the second track was used elsewhere, as spare spans were oftentimes reused along these former Milwaukee Road routes between the 1980s and today.
The author has ranked this bridge as being locally significant, due to the common design.
