This culvert is located a short distance west of the intersection of Coffee Creek and Luther Roads, two miles north of the town of Luther.
The reinforced concrete culvert crosses Coffee Creek and provides run-off for a nearby creek. We were able to get a nice look through the tunnel, and came close to walking through it just for fun. The opening on one end is about 3 ft high by 5 ft. wide, and the opening on the other end is 5 ft. high. The WPA shield stamped in the concrete shows 1936 and we thought it was a nice touch that the numbers were embedded with gravel. LOL
