About this Bridge:
This bridge is a rare Pennsylvania through truss highway bridge, particularly because of the length (271 ft.) of this single span. It was purchased by the State Highway Department in 1919, moved from an unspecified Allegheny River site, probably considerably upstream from Pittsburgh, an then erected on this site in 1921.
