Located between Dysart and Garrison, this small steel stringer bridge crosses a small tributary of Pratt Creek.
Locally known as the Mosquito Bridge, the bridge consists of a single steel stringer span, set onto stone abutments capped in concrete.
Simply built, it is like many others on railroads all around America. It has almost no defining features compared to a nearly identical span to the east.
Overall, the bridge appears to be in good condition, with no major deterioration. It continues to serve as part of the Old Creamery Trail.
The author has ranked the bridge as being minimally significant, due to the common design and small size.
