Notes
  • Significance: The Cache River Bridge was designed by the Arkansas State Highway Department and erected as part of a general improvement of the road connecting Walnut Ridge, Lawrence County, and Paragould, Greene County. It was built, in 1934, by the Vincennes Bridge Company, historically one of the most important of the twentieth century bridge building companies. The structure, a representative Parker pony truss, is most renowned for its simple skew which allows the river to be spanned in a very economical fashion.
