Great River Bridge, Steel truss bridge in Westfield, United States
The Great River Bridge consists of two parallel steel spans across the Westfield River, carrying three traffic lanes in each direction for US Route 202.
The original structure, completed in 1939 after a flood, served as the primary north-south crossing of the Westfield River for seven decades.
The bridge rehabilitation project incorporated new public spaces with fountains and landscaping elements that transformed the surrounding urban environment of downtown Westfield.
The twin bridge configuration allows southbound traffic to use the 1939 structure while northbound vehicles travel on the 2009 addition, reducing downtown congestion.
Between the two parallel bridges lies a landscaped park area that creates a symmetrical arrangement of steel trusses spanning across the water.
