Hickory Creek CR 615 Bridge

Posted November 9, 2007, by Gene McCluney (mccluney [at] sbcglobal [dot] net)

This bridge (the pony trusses) are much older than 1970. The story is that the bridge was removed from a nearby road, and in 1970 was widened and installed in its present location.

Will have photos shortly to submit.
