description

Summary

Significance: Georgia DOT Bridge No. 233-00001D-00648N is a reinforced concrete arch type bridge that was constructed in 1922. Originally constructed with an 18 foot wide roadway, the bridge roadway was widened to 24 feet in 1935 with an in-kind addition to the east side. This bridge is one of only 34 early examples of concrete arch type bridges still extant in the state, and the only remaining one of its kind in Polk County. It is significant for its design and workmanship, and for its role in the development of transportation and commerce in Polk County.
