Notes:

  • One of two similar bridges in this park. This one has a plaque "Allegany Bridge."
  • Al Schweizer, the operations officer for the project, wrote: "The bridge panels (that portion between the vertical suspender cables attached to the main cables) were prefabricated with deck beams, decking, sway braces, handrails. They were trolleyed across the river since we were not allowed to get into the river. The bridges were erected by Company B from Cumberland, Maryland and Company C from Oakland, Maryland. The erection, to include the forming and pouring of the deadmen cable supports, abutments, towers, cable installation (2” diameter) and all the decking took just two weeks! DNR added the lattice because of children crawling on the bridge."
  • Built as part of same project as (footbridge) - Luke vicinity, Maryland, USA.

Notes:

  • This record represents the bridge as rebuilt with the midspan pier in the 1880s.
  • Ann Saul sent a synopsis of this bridge's history from La Roche-Guyon, Bourg Feodal de l'Ancien Vexin Francais by Ernest Colas. "The author states that the bridge was built in 1838, originally with two pylons, one on each bank of the Seine. In 1882, gale force winds turned over a wide stretch of the bridge floor. Afterwards, another pylon was placed in the middle of the river; however, the bridge was not considered stable enough for modern transportation (the automobile, perhaps). Plans were made for a new bridge and the old one was demolished. The new bridge was never built because of World War I."
  • Replaced 1838 La Roche-Guyon - La Roche-Guyon, Val-d'Oise and Yvelines, France.

They said there were some short modern steel footbridges, but no suspension bridges remaining. The person I spoke with knew such a bridge had existed at one point, in the park, but suspected it had been removed years ago. I hope he was right because I decided not to pay the permit fee and verify for myself."

Notes:

  • Eric Sakowski asked the Humboldt County Historical Society for information about this bridge and received this answer from Catherine Mace: "You have a good picture of the bridge over the Klamath River at Weitchpec. The large tree you see through the bridge is the gambling tree and the village of Weitchpec is the structures behind it. The road goes across and makes almost a hairpin turn to the right then it branches . To the right you go up river and to the left goes down river through Weitchpec."
  • See 1861 Weitchpec - Weitchpec, California, USA. The bridge pictured here was likely a replacement for the older bridge.
