Notes:
- Asymmetrical bridge with one tower much taller than the other. The larger tower appears to have been added in 2003 when the bridge was rebuilt following an August 2002 collapse due to a rusted cable. A sign on the current bridge reads "Blaney Bridge, Engineered by Colin Blaney, 2003," but there has been a suspension bridge at this location since before 2003. Follow the photo showing the damaged bridge for more information.
