Barker Road Bridges over Spokane River in Spokane Valley, WA

(no Bridge Hunter; Satellite)

Judging by the plates above the piers, I'm concluding that this was a steel girder bridge.

1953: Two generations of bridges, with the old steel bridge in the background, are pictured as the new, $200,000 Barker Road Bridge across the Spokane River was dedicated April 24, 1953. A procession of civic leaders, color guard from the Naval Supply Depot, valley-area students from nearby high schools and others participants walked across the new bridge following the ribbon-cutting ceremonies. Just behind the color guard is a horse-drawn wagon filled with longtime Spokane Valley residents. The old span was sold, dismantled and moved. (The Spokesman-Review)

I wonder when the current generation bridge was built. I have no idea what type of girders were used to build this bridge.
