This type of bridge is fading away rather fast in central Illinois. Due to the size of farm machinery, theses bridges cannot take the weight, nor are they wide enough to let big equipment cross over them. It will only be a mater of time before they are gone.

There is no parking. I just pulled to the side of the road and snapped these pictures.
Date Built: 01/01/1923
