This bridge was closed somewhere between February and May. It was posted for a five ton weight limit prior to closure. It will most likely be demolished, if Wood County's abysmal track record can be any guidance. Read more about the crimes against history and culture that Wood County has done on my Kemner Road Bridge Page.

This bridge is a pin connected Pratt half-hip pony truss bridge. It is composed of five panels. The deck is wooden with an asphalt wearing surface. The bridge sits on stone abutments. Original railings do not remain on the bridge, and modern Armco railings have been added.
