This is a small three panel pin connected half-hip Pratt pony truss. It features v-lacing on the verticals. The eye bars are of the looped variety. The deck is wood. The bridge is in decent condition, but it has one somewhat serious issue. One of the top chord pins lost the bolt on the outside end of the pin, and the pin has slipped inside the top chord. The pin now sits sticking partially out on the road side of the truss, while the other end rests on the inside of the top chord, barely continuing to hold its diagonal. This fix would be simple, all someone just needs to push the pin back through and throw a bolt back on it.
