Donora-Webster Bridge, Railway bridge across Monongahela River in Donora, US.

The steel truss bridge stretched 1,531 feet across the Monongahela River, connecting Donora Borough with the village of Webster in Pennsylvania.

Built in 1908 for rail traffic, the bridge underwent a transformation in 1938 when it was modified to accommodate automobile transportation between the communities.

The bridge gained recognition on the National Register of Historic Places in 1988 for its engineering design and role in regional transportation development.

The structure connected Route 837 on the western bank to Route 906 on the eastern side until its closure and subsequent demolition in 2015.

The demolition process required removing 700 tons of steel while protecting active railroad lines beneath through specialized underdeck shielding systems.
