"Newell Toll Bridge is a private wire suspension bridge over the Ohio River between Newell, West Virginia and East Liverpool, Ohio. It was the first suspension bridge built entirely of steel as opposed to wrought iron." [BridgeHunter]

This bridge was built by a china (tableware) company that started on the Ohio side and then expanded on the WV side. The bridge was owned by the Homer Laughlin China Company. [B&T]

I can't believe the toll is still just 75 cents. I wonder how old that sign is because US-30 is now routed over the Jennings Randolph Bridge that is a little upstream from here.

This is the toll bridge from Ohio to West Virginia. The hills of West Virginia can be seen on the opposite side of the Ohio River. If you go to the right on the other side of the bridge, within a mile you’ll be in Newell, West Virginia. If you travel to the left, in a mile you’ll be in Chester, West Virginia. These towns are the northernmost in the state.
