Calhoun Street Bridge, Road bridge at Trenton and Morrisville, United States

The 1,274-foot iron bridge spans the Delaware River with a Phoenix Pratt truss design connecting New Jersey and Pennsylvania through seven spans.

The Phoenix Bridge Company constructed this iron bridge in 1884 after a fire destroyed the previous wooden structure that had stood since 1861.

The structure formed part of the Lincoln Highway, the first transcontinental route in America, until its redirection to different crossing points in 1920.

The bridge maintains a three-ton weight restriction, eight-foot vertical clearance, and operates with a speed limit of 15 miles per hour.

This structure represents the sole wrought iron bridge within the Delaware River Joint Toll Bridge Commission system, containing 730 tons of metal materials.
