"Built in 1950, the structure appears to have been constructed entirely of reused spans, including a 210-foot long pin-connected Parker through truss that appears to have been widened....Total length of structure from abutment to abutment is 538 feet, deck width is 22 feet." The Parker truss is "the longest pin-connected truss bridge on the state highway system"
