This bridge is a large deck truss bridge, halfway between Congerville and Goodfield.
Built in 1947, this large deck truss bridge replaced a similar bridge built in 1888. The current bridge consists of three spans of 7-panel riveted Warren Deck Truss. The truss appears to be made of high strength materials, as it has a rather lightweight appearance for a modern bridge.
In addition, the bridge features a deck girder span on either side. The bridge rests on concrete and stone substructures.
The construction of a new truss in 1947 is an unusual step. Typically, truss bridges would be replaced with girder bridges by this time period.
Today, the bridge is still used for railroad use. It appears to be in excellent condition.
The author has ranked this bridge as being locally significant, due to the modern age.
