Quechee Gorge Bridge
Quechee Gorge Bridge, Steel arch bridge at Quechee Gorge, Vermont.
The three-span steel deck truss bridge extends 285 feet in length and stands 163 feet above the Ottauquechee River in Vermont.
Built in 1911 as a railroad passage and converted for vehicles in 1933, this structure represents Vermont's first surviving steel arch bridge.
The bridge stands as a testament to early 20th-century engineering methods, designed by John W. Storrs and constructed by the American Bridge Company.
Visitors can walk on sidewalks along both sides of the bridge while vehicles use the two-lane road surface crossing the gorge.
The central span features a 188-foot parabolic spandrel-braced Pratt truss mounted on concrete footings near original stone abutments.
