Notes
  • Significance: Continuous steel girder bridges with suspended spans. The unique steel picket fence has a ring motif. Identical to the North San Gabriel River Bridge, except for some variation in the number of I-beams. The bridges are examples of an obsolete bridge technology. The bridges replaced metal trusses at the same locations. The bridges served the needs of a rapidly expanding community; demonstrated the state's progress as it prepared for its Centennial, and met requirements of the nation's strategic defense program.
  • Unprocessed Field note material exists for this structure: N568
