Riverside Cemetery Bridge - Poland, OH - Truss Bridges on Waymarking.com

The Riverside Cemetery Bridge, formerly known as White Bridge, is located between Water Street (Route 616) and the Riverside Cemetery, over Yellow Creek, in Poland, Ohio. The bridge was built in 1877 and was originally painted white, thus its former name. It was built by the Ohio Bridge Company of Cleveland, Ohio, using William Rezner's bowstring arch truss design. There are relatively few bridges of this design left in existence. The bridge was closed to automobiles in the 1980s and was used as a pedestrian bridge. It was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983. In 2020, the bridge underwent a $250,000 restoration.
