Check Out Photo Of Famous Nearby Bridge
Thanks to the Clinton County Historical Association for this photo of the AuSable Chasm Bridge. The bridge is a historic steel arch bridge with a concrete and stone-faced approach. It’s on US Route 9 over the Ausable River. The website historicbridges.org states that the main span is 126 feet in length with two approaches resulting in a total lenght of 411 feet. It lists 1934 as the construction date. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1999.
The Occupation Health and Safety Administration (OSHA) definitely didn’t exist in those days.
