This simple Warren Through Truss bridge crosses a small reminder of the old mainline which was replaced during the Godfrey Cutoff.
The bridge is a medium sized Warren Through Truss located in East Alton. It crosses the river with a single 6-Panel Warren Through Truss with riveted connections.
In addition, it rests on concrete substructures. The structure is really hard to get photographs of. Because of this, the author hopes to return soon.
The author has ranked this bridge as being moderately significant, due to the common design and newer age.
