This basic bridge is the second crossing of the Blue River, and consists of a simple and modern design.
It was built in 1954 as part of a railroad realignment through the area.
The bridge consists of 3 deck girder spans, and a pair of concrete slab spans on either approach.
The substructures for this bridge are made entirely of concrete.
The author has ranked this bridge as being minimally significant, due to the common design and very new age.
