It was fabricated by the American Bridge Co. and installed in 1924 by bridge contractors Rogers and Pickard. It features "a poured-in-place concrete deck and buttress outriggers at the panel points." The only other riveted Parker pony truss bridge known to survive in Colorado. (The San Francisco Creek Bridge, built in 1926, has been moved from its original location). References
