Coraopolis Bridge, Dual-purpose bridge in Coraopolis, Pennsylvania.

The Coraopolis Bridge spans the Ohio River back channel connecting Grand Avenue on Neville Island to Ferree Street through steel girder construction.

The original structure from 1892 included Pratt through truss spans designed by Theodore Cooper, which were previously part of the third Sixth Street Bridge.

The bridge represents an engineering milestone for Allegheny County, incorporating both railway and vehicular traffic paths in a single structure.

The infrastructure carries Pennsylvania Route 51 and CSX railway tracks, measuring 1108 feet in length with a primary span of 199 feet.

Engineers in 1927 transported the original bridge structure downstream by floating it on barges rather than demolishing the construction.
