Blasterz are not sure if this bridge always served as solely a pedestrian bridge or if it was also used by vehicles when it spanned the San Raba River.
Today (2016) this handsome historic pinned through-truss bridge carries folks over Mill Creek in Mill Pond Park. It was relocated here when slated for replacement by a modern bridge.
