Jefferson Avenue–Huron River and Harbin Drive–Silver Creek Canal Bridges
Jefferson Avenue–Huron River and Harbin Drive–Silver Creek Canal Bridges, Road bridges in Berlin and Brownstown Charter Townships, United States.
The Jefferson Avenue Bridge and the Harbin Drive Bridge are two road crossings in the area, each constructed to carry traffic over different waterways. They connect parts of the surrounding townships and allow vehicles to pass over water passages in the region.
These bridges were built in the 1930s and replaced earlier crossings, including a manually operated swing structure at the Jefferson Avenue location. Construction marked a shift toward modern vehicle transportation systems in the area.
These structures represent the transportation infrastructure development of Michigan, connecting the historical route between Detroit and Toledo.
The Jefferson Avenue crossing carries traffic on an established main road, while the Harbin Drive route passes through smaller residential areas. These bridges are integrated into normal road travel rather than designed as standalone visitor destinations.
These bridges remain the only structures in the region that share a continuous railing design across two separate waterways.
