Henderson Bridge, Railway bridge in Henderson, Indiana, US
The Henderson Bridge extends 12,123 feet across the Ohio River, connecting Henderson to Vanderburgh County with its steel truss construction.
The Henderson Bridge opened on December 31, 1932, replacing an earlier structure from 1885 that required demolition due to increased rail traffic demands.
The bridge construction marked a transformation in regional transportation, ending the reliance on river ferries for railroad crossings in this section of Indiana.
CSX Transportation operates this rail crossing, which includes a main channel span of 648 feet designed for heavy freight train passages.
The bridge construction cost $3,000,000 in 1932, incorporating engineering advances that allowed for greater weight capacity than its predecessor.
