I wonder when it was replaced with a fixed truss bridge. https://maps.app.goo.gl/3Js2minCAjc9Emyd6

I guess the gates are raised up into the truss structure across the dam.

I noticed a flood control structure just upstream from this dam.

It allows excess water to go around the town on the east side.
