Notes
  • Significance: The bridge over Big Piney Creek provides an interesting example of a State Highway Department bridge design of the early 1930s executed with limited funds; although there is no apparent loss of quality in design or execution the bridge has a narrow roadway and limited load capacity. Its status as a Forest Highway bridge caused its limited funding, and further enhances the significance of the bridge.
  • Survey number: HAER AR-22
  • Building/structure dates: 1931 Initial Construction
