BRIDGE INFORMATION - The 1952 steel through-truss bridge underwent routine inspection (typically every two years for older bridges) in December 2013, with no damage identified. Upon a site visit on September 15, CDOT discovered a crack on one of the structure’s vertical truss members (see photo). The bridge was closed late afternoon on the 16th.
