The rehabilitated bridge has a weight limit of 13 ton. [BridgeHunter]

Jan 2, 2009 comment by Anthony Dillon in ArchivedBridgeHunter:
GOOD NEWS.........This bridge is being disassembled-not for storage or relocation, but it is to be restored and reassembled in place.Ohio has been doing that with some of their spans, but this might just be a first in Indiana (for a steel truss bridge).
Anthony provided several photos in the comments of the assembly of the bridge. The truss was reassembled on land. The wooden deck was added after the truss was lifted over the river. The original cut stone abutments were reused.

One advantage of the truss being assembled on land is that it is easier to get detail shots of the outside of the truss.
