Mianus River Railroad Bridge
Mianus River Railroad Bridge, Railway bridge in Greenwich, Connecticut.
The Mianus River Railroad Bridge spans across the Mianus River with eleven sections supported by stone abutments and measures 1,059 feet in total length.
Built in 1904 by the American Bridge Company, this structure replaced an older bridge and received recognition on the National Register of Historic Places in 1987.
The bridge represents a period of railway expansion in Connecticut, serving the Northeast Corridor, which remains the most frequented rail line in the United States.
The movable bascule mechanism allows the bridge to lift, creating a passage for boats underneath while maintaining regular rail traffic on the Metro-North Railroad.
The structure contains seven deck truss spans and multiple deck girder spans, with its main movable section extending 107 feet across the water.
