It is a three-span concrete deck arch bridge designed by Carbon County, Montana surveyor C.A. Gibson and was "quite advanced for the time": it has "flattened parabolic arches with a rise to span ratio of 1 to 7." At its completion it was the largest concrete bridge in the state.[2]
In 1993 it was the oldest multi-arch concrete bridge surviving in the state.[2]
