This bridge was demolished in April 2012!

This three span steel stringer bridge was built in 1939 by the Kalamazoo County Road Commission. The contractor for the bridge was L.W. Lamb. The bridge sits on concrete piers and abutments. The bridge retains original railings and is in good condition, despite minor damage to the railings and plaque at the southeast abutment, probably due to a car crash.
