Built in 1904, the Lehigh Parkway Bridge is a single span steel bridge that crosses the Little Lehigh Creek. It is of Pratt-through truss design. While still available to view, the bridge itself is no longer in use. This is because the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation deemed it unsafe to support automobile traffic around 2000 or so.
