Historic Significance Rating (HSR)

This bridge is a two span pony truss that is part of a dam. It is structurally independent from the dam aside from the fact that portions of the dam structure function as a substructure for the bridge. The bridge is a narrow structure that appears to have been designed for pedestrian use only. Its purpose is to provide access to the dam for operation and maintenance. The truss is traditionally composed for its type, and it stylistically appears to date to the first decade or two of the 20th Century.
