This bridge is an attractive pin-connected structure. Although relatively traditional in design, the tall height of the trusses give this bridge a distinctive appearance that allows it to stand out among other truss bridges of the period. The southern portal bracing was damaged by what appears to have been a clearance violation. The bottom portion of said portal brace was replaced, as well as the bottom of the southernmost sway bracing. The floor beams do not appear to be original.
