Pike 147 359 E over the Patoka River

This Single Span Steel Thru-Truss was built in 1915. The bridge is eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places, but is not select for preservation, per the Programmatic Agreement Regarding Management and Preservation Indiana’s Historic Bridges. The status of this bridge is currently “pending,” which means that its future is currently unknown as the Section 106 historic review process is on-going.

Depending on the outcome of Section 106 consultation, interested parties may be able to utilize the bridge. The County is now accepting proposals for the rehabilitation and reuse, or the storage and future reuse of the bridge. Proposals will also be accepted for the salvage of elements that may be stored for future repair of similar historic bridges.
