Miller's Run Covered Bridge, Lyndon, Vermont Postcard

"Miller's Run Covered Bridge, Lyndon, Vermont" by Catherine Sherman. The Miller's Run Covered Bridge, in Lyndon, Vermont, is the only covered bridge in Vermont still in active use as part of the state highway system. The bridge, a queenspost through truss, cross the Passumpsic River. Traffic is steady on the bridge, so the bridge's covered side walk is a great safety feature. The one-lane bridge is so heavily used that it had to be reinforced with steel I-beams underneath. The bridge, also called the Bradley Covered Bridge, was built in 1878 and restored in 1995. The bridge was listed to the National Register of Historic Places on June 13, 1977. A Halloween decoration hangs on a house in the background in this Autumn photograph, taken in early October.
