72355 | Valley Green Road Bridge Over Wissahickon Creek (Whitemarsh Township, Montgomery County)

This project involves the rehabilitation or replacement of the existing bridge. Constructed in 1884, it is a 174’ long, three-span, wrought iron, pin-connected Pratt pony truss. The bridge carries two lanes of traffic on a narrow 18’-8” curb-to-curb width. The bridge was determined eligible for the National Register of Historic Places for its technological significance. The county will provide pedestrian access on the bridge if replaced to provide a connection from the eastern side of the bridge to the Wissahickon Trail which runs along the creek on the westerly side of the bridge.
A final alternative for the bridge will rehabilitation or replacement will be determined upon Federal National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) or state Categorical Exclusion clearance.
