This bridge is an example of a rigid-frame concrete structure. Typical of the structure type, this bridge contains attractive arched beams. The bridge also features concrete railings (which appear to have been repaired for reconstructed) that are complemented by the decorative design of the piers. Separate spans exist for the two sidewalks that pass under the bridge.
