Why yet another still girder RR bridge? Because I was impressed by the amount of concrete used here to channelize the creek. It has natural shores at the Metra/Rock Island overpass and the dam.

| Dan Tracy commented on HalstEd's post In this May of 93 scene is a southbound rolling over the new Hickory Creek bridge. You can see the remains of the old abutment being removed in the foreground. Nice to see this bridge still in the IDOT highway green. |
