The Junction Bridge was originally built in 1884. When constructed it was a swing bridge however in 1970 the bridge was converted to a vertical lift bridge. With the reduction of railroad traffic the bridge was taken out of service. In 2008 the bridge was opened to pedestrians and the bridge remains in the raised position.
Visit Instructions:
1) After you've found a vertical lift bridge, go visit it, get the coordinates, a picture or two of it, and if it is in use or not still as a lift bridge.
Then log it and post your pictures! At least one of the photos must be of you and your GPS there with the bridge in the background. (No old vacation shots or photos off the internet!)
2) Include the coordinates, city/county/state/country and the name of the bridge (if it has one).
3) Include any interesting information about the structure
