Browns Bridge, Cantilever bridge in Hall County, Georgia, US
Browns Bridge stretched across Lake Sidney Lanier, connecting Hall and Forsyth counties through a continuous through truss design spanning 1,371 feet.
Constructed in 1955 by Patchen and Zimmerman, the bridge emerged during infrastructure developments following the creation of Lake Lanier from Buford Dam construction.
The structure inherited its name from the Brown family, who held substantial influence in the development of Gainesville and the surrounding region.
The bridge carried Georgia State Route 369 across the lake with two traffic lanes and a width of 23.6 feet until its replacement in 2021.
The bridge featured a Modified Warren design with rivet connections, incorporating 20 panels with fixed spans and metal stringer approach sections.
