Niangua Arm US 54 Bridge
Here is a picture of the westernmost span that was taken after the rest of the bridge was demolished.

I agree - great bridge and the new one is definately lacking in character! This bridge was for sale in "Arizona Highways" magazine about the time it was removed...site indicates bridge "no longer exits", so I guess it was never brought - what a shame!

This was a great bridge I'm sad to see it go. It’s just down from the Ha Ha Tonka State Park. It really added to the area with the look of its steel trusses. Unfortunately it was replaced with a very ugly concrete eye sore that adds nothing to the area and you can't see over the sides of the bridge in a car.
