Bluff Dale Suspension Bridge
Bluff Dale Suspension Bridge, Cable-stayed bridge in Bluff Dale, Texas, US.
The Bluff Dale Suspension Bridge extends 225 feet across the Paluxy River with fourteen 1-inch-diameter cables connecting to iron pipe towers.
Built in 1891 to replace a river ford, the bridge served as part of State Highway 10 until 1934 when authorities moved it upstream.
The Texas Historical Commission placed a marker in 1978 to recognize the bridge's role in regional transportation development.
The structure stands on County Road 149 north of U.S. 377, and while closed to vehicles since 1989, remains accessible for observation.
Engineer Edwin Elijah Runyon designed this bridge using hand-twisted wire cables and wrought-iron pipes, making it one of two remaining examples.
