Deep River Camelback Truss Bridge
Deep River Camelback Truss Bridge, Steel road bridge in Gulf-Cumnock region, North Carolina, United States
The Deep River Camelback Truss Bridge extends 365 feet across the Deep River, connecting Chatham and Lee Counties with a single-lane steel structure.
Constructed in 1901, the bridge received recognition on the National Register of Historic Places in 1995 for its engineering significance in transportation development.
The structure stands as one of four remaining camelback trusses in North Carolina, representing early 20th-century metal engineering technology and regional transportation methods.
Visitors access the pedestrian bridge via Cumnock Road from US-421, with parking available at Deep River Park, which includes picnic areas and boat facilities.
The bridge features steel components stamped with Cambria markings from Johnstown, Pennsylvania, and maintains pin-connected joints secured with large steel nuts.
