Brecksville-Northfield High Level Bridge, Deck arch bridge in Cuyahoga Valley National Park, United States.
The Brecksville-Northfield High Level Bridge spans 345 meters across the Cuyahoga River with five concrete arches reaching a height of 44 meters.
Engineer Alfred M. Felgate designed this transportation structure in 1931 to replace the Station Road Bridge, connecting Brecksville with Sagamore Hills Township.
The structure represents early 20th-century engineering methods through its open-spandrel arch design documented by the Historic American Engineering Record.
The bridge carries State Route 82 traffic over the Cuyahoga River, the Cuyahoga Valley Scenic Railroad, and the Ohio and Erie Canal simultaneously.
Five individuals received prison sentences between 2012 and 2013 for attempting to place explosives on this concrete structure.
