Length - 130' .... SE of Westport, Sand Creek Township. Main St. E. 0.9 miles from jct with IN3 in Westport, continue SE on CR1100S 1.2 miles to the bridge on the NE side of the road. Built by A.M. Kennedy & Sons. The bridge originally was completely enclosed. At some time, probably in the 1930s, side windows were installed in half the length on each side at opposite ends so that oncoming traffic could be seen, because the road turns quickly at each end. Later, probably in the early 1950s, the windows were extended the full length of the bridge. Bridge was rehabilitated in 2003-2004. Posted to the National Register of Historic Places on June 25, 1982. Open to through traffic. Truss Type - Covered Burr Arch Twelve Panel Through Truss.
