Labo Del Rio Bridge
Navajo Road Over Piedra River
Arboles
Built 1913
The 1913 bridge is an example of construction considered quite advanced for its time. A Kansas company built it using rivets, rather than pinned connections. The bridge was replaced at its old site along US Route 160 and moved to this isolated crossing of the Piedra River. The superstructure is unaltered except for deck replacement.
