Bridge closed last week due to damage from an auto accident. It is alleged that the damage is severe enough that the county is considering replacing it.

Neat bridge. Larger than the other Canton Bridge Company bridges in our area. Longer span as well. Not sure if the larger frame is due to higher load carrying or longer span or both.
