Bridge Information
The Wallingford Bridge is a Pratt through truss bridge that was built in 1949. This bridge replaced the historic covered bridge that was at this site. The covered bridge was built in 1874 and was a single span Town truss. It was demolished in 1949 so the new bridge could be constructed.
