Shallowford Bridge, Steel truss bridge in Blue Ridge, Georgia.
The Shallowford Bridge stretches 175 feet across the Toccoa River with a wooden deck supported by a steel truss frame construction.
The construction and opening of Shallowford Bridge in 1918 established an essential connection point for local communities across the Toccoa River.
