Illinois has less historic bridges than many of the states which
surround it, except for Cook County and Chicago. HistoricBridges.org is
proud to offer the most extensive coverage of Cook County and Chicago
bridges available on the Internet. Cook County has one of the largest
numbers of historic bridges in the country.
Iroquois County
once had one of the largest truss bridge populations in the
state outside of Cook County, but has demolished many of its bridges.
The remainder of of Illinois is noted for a variety of traditionally
composed pin-connected truss bridges and also concrete through girders.
However preservation of bridges outside of Chicagoland is nearly
nonexistant in Illinois.
