I found the P&R bridge while looking for a satellite image of the Cumberland Valley Bridge.
Its 51 arches are three more than the Rockville Bridge. In the satellite image and in some of the photos I noticed pier ruins west of the bridge on the south side. I presume they are left over from a previous bridge.
